Meet The Team | Amy Parker

Christina Mullins • April 16, 2025

Spring Has Sprung! 

It's hard to believe we're nearing the halfway mark of 2025—and the beginning of hurricane season. Every month, we spotlight one of our amazing team members. For April, we're excited to highlight Amy Parker, a key part of our Accounting Department, working in Accounts Receivable. 


About Amy 

Amy was born in Oglethorpe, Georgia, and spent her entire life in Macon County before moving to Louisiana in 2022. Prior to joining GRS in October 2022, she served as an Office Manager at Macon County Farm Bureau for 15 years. 


In her free time, Amy enjoys life as a self-proclaimed "beach bum," visiting Gulf Coast beaches as often as she can. She also loves reading and antiquing. 


Amy is a proud mom to two daughters, Bailee and Madison, and cherishes time with her family and her beloved Cane Corso, Gypsy. She’s an avid supporter of LSU Gymnastics and Auburn University. In the NFL, she cheers for the Baltimore Ravens, thanks to linebacker Roquan Smith, who also hails from Macon County. 


Life in Louisiana 

Last year, Amy and her boyfriend, Adam, purchased a home in Gonzales, Louisiana. They’ve been busy transforming their new house into a home—planting flowers, decorating, and picking out new furniture. 


Amy's Advice for Success 

When asked what advice she would give to company leaders, Amy shared: 

"Find out what motivates your team and use that to challenge them." 


For employees, her advice is simple but crucial: 

"Honesty is an important part of communication, because it develops trust." 


Fun Facts About Amy 

For this Meet the Team spotlight, we asked Amy a special question: What's an interesting fact about you? 
She had two incredible answers: 

  • Family Ties to History: Amy's ancestor, Lyman Hall, was a signer of the Declaration of Independence. 
  • Music Video Star: Amy appears in the crowd of the Jason Aldean music video for the song “Gonna Know We Were Here.” Look for her during the burnout scene!

Meet The Team | Whitney Hampton

By Christina Mullins • October 8, 2025
Ahh, October. It’s hard to fathom that we’re already on the brink of Halloween — and then, you know how the rest of the year goes. Before long, we’ll be preparing for our last full company meeting, Family Day, and our Thanksmas celebrations. The end of 2025 will be here before we know it! That being said — no matter what the busy season brings — when it comes to property damage emergencies, our team is always there for you. Meet the Team | Whitney Hampton Every month, I have the opportunity to showcase one of our awesome team members. For October, we are excited to introduce you to Whitney Hampton , one of our Gulfport Business Development Representatives. Gulf Coast Roots & Family Life Whitney was born and raised in New Orleans but has split her time between Louisiana and Mississippi throughout her life. She later moved to Gulfport, where she graduated from high school. As a young adult, she lived in Bossier City, LA. Now, she is back on the coast in Biloxi, where she raises her two children, Kohen and Kobi, with her husband. Education & Professional Background Whitney graduated from the University of Southern Mississippi with a degree in Marketing — SMTTT! This December, she’ll be finishing her master’s in marketing with a specialization in Digital Strategy. Before joining our team in December 2023, she worked in property management. Whitney started in leasing, then was promoted to Community Manager, where she received the Best Marketing Award in 2023 . Life Outside of Work Personally, when she is not working, Whitney is usually busy with “The Adventures of Kohen and Kobi.” They love spending their weekends exploring new places, such as the science museum, zoo, or splash pad. Staying active and making fun memories together is what she enjoys most. Sports are a big part of the Hampton household. They are big Philadelphia Eagles fans — GO BIRDS! They also love the Florida Gators and have attended many games in Gainesville. Saturdays and Sundays are definitely football days in their house.
