About Colin Harper

I help high net worth families with complex financial lives make confident, thoughtful decisions about their wealth. That includes investing, taxes, estate planning, and stewardship.A big part of my work is helping clients recognize the gift of having enough. That clarity allows them to enjoy what they’ve built, spend with intention, and create a lasting legacy for future generations.Before joining Mariner, I spent 12 years running my own advisory firm, which shaped my practical, no-nonsense approach to wealth management. I focus on long-term relationships and strategies that adapt as goals, family dynamics, and priorities evolve.Outside of finance, I\'m a father, husband, and commercial pilot.
