McLean Parker Hooff
McLean Parker Hooff brings a unique blend of business acumen, design expertise, and
global experience to the real estate industry. A proud graduate of the University of
Georgia, McLean earned her Bachelor of Science in Fashion Merchandising from
the College of Consumer and Family Sciences in 1994. Her passion for design took
her to Paris, where she studied at the prestigious Parsons School of Design for a
summer, further refining her eye for aesthetics and luxury.
After her time abroad, McLean moved to New York City, joining The Wedding
List, an innovative multi-channel retailer specializing in wedding registries. Her
experience in the fast-paced startup environment sharpened her skills in client
relations, branding, and market strategy. Eventually, she found her way to
Savannah, Georgia, where she became a key figure at the Savannah College of Art
and Design (SCAD). As Executive Director of Institutional Advancement, she
worked closely with renowned figures in the design and art industries, traveling
internationally to build lasting relationships and support the college’s mission.
After several years at SCAD, McLean decided to step away from her career to
focus on her family and her two young children. In 2018, she relocated to
Charleston, South Carolina, where she embarked on her first major renovation and
rebuild of a home, further fueling her passion for real estate and design.
Her love for home transformation is rooted in her upbringing—growing up in a
creative household with a mother who enjoyed buying, renovating, and building
homes for their family. That early exposure to real estate and design sparked
McLean’s lifelong passion, inspiring her to do the same when she became a
homeowner.
McLean’s personal and professional experience has given her a keen eye for
finding the perfect home for any family. Whether clients are searching for a move-
in-ready home, planning to build, or seeking a property with renovation potential,
McLean is a trusted resource. She loves real estate because it blends all of her
favorite things—architecture, finance, and design—allowing her to bring a well-
rounded, thoughtful approach to every transaction.

and style.
