Mary Harris

Mike and Mary Harris established Capital Consultants in 1997, leveraging the trust and relationships they had built with their clients through many years of experience with sister company E.M. Harris Construction. Over the years, Capital Consultants has emerged as a leader in the industry, maintaining strong connections with some of the country's primary lending and investment institutions.

Before founding Capital Consultants, Mary began her professional journey at AT&T (previously known as Southwestern Bell). She quickly advanced through the ranks and eventually took on the responsibility of managing $850 million in revenue generated from intrastate calls. During this time, Mary pursued a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration from Lindenwood University, attending classes in the evenings and on weekends. Mary's expertise and entrepreneurial drive enabled her to launch and expand various businesses in the marketing and construction sectors. Notable ventures include the creation of the first printed apartment guide in the St. Louis region and the founding of a company that specialized in supplying union laborers and cabinets to general contractors.

In addition to her role as a business owner, Mary has also devoted herself to raising her three children (and four grandchildren) alongside Mike. This commitment to family has included numerous road trips to Florida, creating lasting memories for their loved ones.

With Mike’s unexpected passing in 2021, Mary stepped into the position of Chief Executive Officer. She has taken on the responsibility of ensuring the company's future by offering the same level of guidance and supervision that she and Mike had provided for many years. Meanwhile President Sean King oversees the day-to-day operations, supported by a skilled and committed team at Capital Consultants. Mary remains actively engaged in her role as CEO, working alongside Sean to navigate the company towards success.
