Kim Benefield, WMCP®, RICP®

Joining in the fall of 2021, Kim is the most recent addition to our team…but comes as a veteran to this business. She started in this business in 1985 while completing her MBA at Tennessee Tech University. She has worked at many levels in the financial business – from branch manager to compliance officer, to team development training, to her current and ultimate role with The Parker Group. With The Parker Group Kim is able to use her broad knowledge and high level understanding of this industry to develop and manage a standard of care for the team's clients that is second to none.

As natives of Columbia, Kim and her husband of 37 years, Jeff, spend most non-working time actively involved in the community. They have been members of First Baptist Church since 1990. They have one daughter who is married and also calls Columbia home. They all love to be outside and are all quick to volunteer. Kim’s favorite pass time is literally walking around Columbia…wave to her as you drive by!
