Why Are You Passionate About the Work You Do?

The purpose of the RIA model is centered on doing what is in the best interest of the client, which feels really good. To take it a step further, I believe in the culture and offering that we have at Mariner Wealth Advisors and believe it’s truly best in class. Helping advisors get to the RIA model at our firm is my North Star.
