Nothing shapes your experience working with Curi RMB Capital more than the people who make our work possible every day. The Meet Curi RMB Capital series offers a chance to get to know our team a little better.
Curi RMB: Tell us about your role with Curi RMB Capital and what your experience has been like so far.
Hannah Arthur: As a Client Service Administrator, I mainly work alongside the advisors to be done to serve and meet the needs of our clients. This typically entails onboarding new clients, account maintenance, movement of funds, and a variety of other tasks. I’ve also been cross-training with the financial planning team, shadowing some of our wealth advisors and completing data entry on the financial planning software.
Another focus of mine has been studying for my CFP® designation and completing my education program to become eligible to sit for the exam.
Curi RMB: What led you to your career?
HA: I began my time in undergrad as a Nutrition Science major planning to go into dietetics, until I realized my sophomore year that was no longer my passion. I decided to drop my classes and began researching alternate careers. I had a lot of great conversations with my father, David Arthur, Senior Director of Wealth Management, and Katie Strother, Wealth Advisor, gaining insight into their day to day. I began to pursue this path and haven’t looked back since.
I’ve always loved math, so that coupled with the relationship-building aspect just felt like the perfect combination for me. I’m now nine months into my role with Curi RMB Capital and it has allowed me to learn the ins and outs of the business and gain a better understanding of this industry.
Curi RMB: What did you do in your career before joining the Curi RMB Capital team?
HA: While a full-time student at North Carolina State University, I had the opportunity to work as an Investment Associate Intern at Park Ridge Asset Management (later acquired by Curi Capital in 2022), and a Business Intern at the North Carolina National Guard Association, where I worked under the Executive Assistant in finance and budgeting.
Curi RMB: What is your vision for the firm?
HA: Although we are continuing to experience growth with our recent merger with RMB Capital, my personal goal is to continue focusing on serving our clients and helping them reach their personal and financial goals.
Curi RMB: What sets Curi RMB Capital apart from other firms?
HA: I noticed a strong sense of teamwork from day one—everyone is open to collaboration. We’re all using our individual strengths to work together as a team to reach our goals. Everyone is very passionate about the work they are doing and goes above and beyond to serve the needs of our clients. It’s a wonderful and encouraging environment to be a part of.
Curi RMB: What has been one of the most memorable experiences in your personal life?
HA: Running a half marathon in November of 2023. It taught me a lot about endurance and perseverance. All those months of training out in the heat paid off the moment I completed the race. There was just as much a need for mental training in addition to the obvious physical challenges.
Curi RMB: What are some of your interests or hobbies outside of work?
HA: I’m very involved at my church and am part of the worship team where I serve as a worship leader . I did an internship under the worship pastor in college and have continued volunteering with that team ever since. I am also one of the small group co-leaders for our Women's Bible Studies and love being a part of that community. I enjoy staying active, and getting outside and running different races throughout the year is one of my favorite ways to do that. And, of course, I always love spending time with my family, friends, and fiancé, Graham.
