John Cooper, Cfp® Email & Phone Number

Greenwood is steeped in the Carolina tradition of helping your neighbor, and I have focused my career on applying those values. As a financial advisor, I listen to my clients as they share their dreams and fears, and I put together customized solutions to help them reach their goals and provide peace of mind. This is especially important as families grow and parents age. I often meet with all the members of a family to design a comprehensive plan to transfer wealth, pass on a business, or prepare for the unexpected. Many of my clients are healthcare professionals. My first "career" was as a healthcare professional at Self Memorial Hospital (now known as Self Regional Healthcare). My work with current healthcare professionals allows me to provide insight and proven solutions to the specific financial concerns that face those in the healthcare field. As a Greenwood native, I prioritize giving back to my community. I serve on the boards of the United Way of the Lakelands, the S.C. Financial Planning Association (FPA), and the Self Regional Healthcare Foundation. Though I am not much of a fisherman myself, I also coach and coordinate the Greenwood School District Fishing Team. On the weekends, you’ll find me tackling a new home DIY project or spending time with my wife, Susan, and my two kids, Ross and Ashley.
