TEAM BIO’s
Edwards Insurance Agency
Tripp has been in the insurance field since 1998 where he started as a claims adjuster for State Farm. In 2003 he became an insurance agent and was appointed with Farm Bureau. After working for Farm Bureau in personal lines for 4 years, Tripp decided he wanted to open an independent agency where he could offer more specialized services to his community. In 2007 Tripp made his dream a reality and Edwards Insurance Agency of Greenville, Inc. was founded!
Tripp is a Greenville native and is a Wade Hampton High School graduate. He earned his bachelor’s degree in Construction Science from Clemson University in 1996 and is an avid Clemson fan. Tripp is married to his wife Pepe (who also works for the agency) and has two sons Will and Jack. Tripp enjoys being an independent agent so he can educate his clients on the ins and outs of insurance and provide a tailor-made package to his customers.
Stephanie “Pepe” Edwards earned her BFA in dance from Columbia College in 1995. After Pepe graduated from Columbia College she instructed dance for 10 years and even danced in the opening ceremony of the 1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta, GA.
In 2006 Pepe embarked on a new career path and became a licensed producer with Horace Mann. Pepe assisted teachers from Anderson and Pickens county schools with their auto and insurance needs. Pepe began working alongside Tripp at Edwards Insurance Agency in 2014.
Pepe is originally from Piedmont, SC and attended Wren High School. The thing Pepe enjoys most about working for an independent agency is it allows her to extend more personalized options to her clients.
A Greensboro, NC native, John attended NC State University (Go Pack!) and then graduated from The University of North Carolina at Greensboro with a degree in Communication Studies in 2004. John joined Edwards Insurance Agency from State Farm in August, 2019. He and his family moved to Greenville, SC from the Nashville, TN area in the summer of 2016.
Prior to his career in insurance, John was a PGA golf professional at several prestigious courses including East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta, GA as well as Biltmore Forest Country Club in Asheville, NC. John is very excited to be a part of Edwards Insurance Agency to assist in taking care of your insurance needs as wells as friends and family of yours if given the opportunity. John is married to his wife Nicole and they have two children, Madison and Connor.

Will’s new hobby is training for marathons and has ran 2 since he graduated from Clemson University. He is a licensed Agent and has been with us since 2023. Will is looking to help his community by providing the best service to educate and protect his clients.

What Our Clients are Saying…
Great team looking out for their clients. They are always available to give advice and point you in the right direction with your insurance needs! I know they have my family protected with the right home and auto coverage!
I made the change to Edwards Insurance about 10 years ago and I haven’t looked back! Tripp and Pepe are on top my needs and proactively reach out to me with savings when they see the right opportunity for me. I actually recommended that my dad move thing over to Tripp and they take good care of the old man. We are not a number with them, you can tell that they care about us.
Edwards Insurance handles all of our personal and business insurance. The customer service that we receive is the best we have ever dealt with. The rates are always competitive. They truly know how to take care of our family and our business. Tripp and Pepe and their team are top notch and could not imagine ever going anywhere else! Thank you for everything you all do for us!
We think you all are the absolute best people and the best insurance company we have ever worked with. We know Tripp and Pepe care about us and always take the time to help us with all of our needs with a smile on their face! Can’t say enough good things about Edwards Insurance!
I am so happy I was referred to Edwards Insurance Agency during my move to South Carolina. Miranda Pittman made my transition during a very busy time stress-free writing new policies for homeowners, auto, and golf cart insurance. I feel confident in my coverage and the ease of working with the team at Edwards is such a refreshing customer service experience!
