Cheryl Daniel serves as the Client Relations Manager for Hudnall Wealth in Shreveport, Louisiana, where she brings a unique combination of operational leadership, analytical thinking, and client-focused service to the financial services industry. Her diverse professional background has equipped her with the ability to simplify complex processes, build effective systems, and provide exceptional support to both clients and advisors.
A native of Minden, Louisiana, known as "The Friendliest City in the South" and for its longstanding philanthropic support of St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Cheryl developed an early appreciation for community service, hard work, and building meaningful relationships. She now resides in Benton, Louisiana, with her husband, William Daniel, where they enjoy lake life while raising their family.
Cheryl's career spans multiple industries, each contributing valuable experience to her role in financial services. She began her professional journey in outside sales before transitioning into residential real estate, where she held leadership positions as Director of Residential Real Estate and Broker/Managing Partner. In those roles, she specialized in residential real estate development, operational management, and portfolio growth for developers. Her accomplishments earned her recognition as one of SB Magazine's Top Realtors in 2019. During her real estate career, she also earned several professional designations, including Certified Residential Specialist (CRS), Pricing Strategy Advisor (PSA), Real Estate Negotiation Expert (RENE), and Real Estate Investing (REI).
Following her real estate career, Cheryl spent six years in healthcare, first as a Cardiac Technician with Ochsner LSU Health, where she specialized in non-invasive cardiac testing and monitoring, and later as an Applied Behavioral Analytics Therapist, providing early intervention services for children with autism. These experiences strengthened her attention to detail, compassion, and ability to solve complex problems while serving others.
Although Cheryl found fulfillment in every stage of her career, she was ultimately drawn to financial services because it aligned with her greatest strengths: analytical thinking, process improvement, and continuous learning. She enjoys helping create structure, supporting operational excellence, and contributing to an environment where clients receive thoughtful, personalized service.
Cheryl earned an Associate of Science in Allied Health from Bossier Parish Community College in 2022 and is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences through the University of the People. She has been recognized on the Dean's List for five consecutive academic terms.
Outside of the office, Cheryl is devoted to her family. She and her husband are the proud parents of three children and a bonus daughter, and much of their time is spent attending soccer and softball games, cheering on LSU football, baseball, and softball, or enjoying time together fishing and relaxing on the lake. She also enjoys cooking, gardening, and singing with her family.
A lifelong lover of music, Cheryl competed throughout middle and high school in vocal, piano, and oboe competitions, consistently earning superior ratings and several music scholarships. She was also selected as third-chair oboe with the Shreveport Symphony's student program.
Community involvement remains an important part of Cheryl's life. Inspired by her hometown's culture of philanthropy, she volunteers throughout the year with organizations and events including the Evangel Autism 5K & Fun Run, the American Heart Association, and Dream Hunt.
Cheryl believes meaningful relationships are built on trust, compassion, and treating people with genuine care. One of her favorite quotes, by Maya Angelou, reflects the philosophy she strives to embody both personally and professionally: "People will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
