Jeannine Riesco Miranda

Director of Political Treasury, Reporting & Compliance

Jeannine Riesco Miranda earned her Bachelor’s degree from Florida State University in 2001, majoring in Psychology with a double minor in Communications and Business. She went on to complete a Master’s degree in Instructional Systems Design in 2003. This academic background gives her the unique ability to integrate business solutions with the implementation of structured systems that are effective, engaging, and efficient.

After five years of living, studying, and working in Tallahassee, Jeannine returned to her hometown of Miami, where she began her professional career at Riesco and Company. She immediately assumed a leadership role, managing the compliance and reporting work of her first major political campaign involving a million+ dollar campaign. From that point forward, she has built a career specializing in what is widely regarded as one of the most critical components of successful campaigns: the Treasury role. With more than 20 years of experience, Jeannine has worked extensively with federal, state, local, and municipal candidate campaigns and Political Committees. Jeannine’s integrity, work ethic, and her passion for excellence has allowed our firm to grow significantly (an average of 100 campaigns and committees during each election cycle).

This long track record of successful representation of many Campaigns and Committees has earned her a strong and pristine reputation among existing elected officials, election attorneys, political consultants and the many Supervisors of Elections alike.

In addition to her professional accomplishments, Jeannine is committed to giving back to her community through service on numerous boards and organizations. Outside of work, she enjoys spending time with her husband and cheering on their two sons across a variety of activities—including football, baseball, basketball, jiu-jitsu—and, of course, assisting with homework.
