Tewksbury-based Zito Partners on Monday said Christina Scolaro, a 25-year veteran in the financial news industry, has joined the firm as partner.
Most recently, Scolaro worked at CNBC’s flagship morning program, “Squawk Box,” as the show’s talent producer, bringing lawmakers, industry leaders and Fortune 500 CEOs to air during the live three-hour show that airs weekdays from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m.
