As the current Founding Member and Managing Director of The Zaino Group LLC, he not only caters to his local market, but serves as a National Retirement Counselor to 74 different Federal Agencies and hosts educational workshop events in-person on a biweekly basis to agencies from the Department of Defense to NASA, Homeland Security, the Veterans Administration, the Social Security Administration and many more.

Zaino hosts a local radio show, “Money Matters with Mike,” that airs Saturdays at noon in the Charlotte, NC market, and is available as a podcast on all the major platforms. He has been extremely fortunate, in that his contributions to numerous articles have been featured in Money, The Huffington Post, Yahoo Finance, MSN, TIME, Reader’s Digest, US News & World Report, and several others.

Prior to the last 12 years in his current position, Zaino has spent 16 years working for an international advertising & marketing company, the last eight as their VP of Business Development, and before that, 8 years in the US Army National Guard.

“My experience and accumulated knowledge base, skill set, and public speaking ability all lend themselves to the responsibilities required while serving on the Board,” explains Zaino. “I look forward to helping the Board in whatever capacity is needed. It is important to me to give back to our Association whose Mission is to help guide others in providing for their secure financial future.”
