Mike Amine
Mike Amine is a man whose exemplary journey embodies the values of perseverance, leadership, and service to the community. Mike Amine, a former wrestler at the University of Michigan, is much more than an accomplished athlete. He is a shining example of success, both on the wrestling mat and in the professional world.
As a wrestler, Mike made history by reaching the NCAA finals in 1988 and captaining the team that ended Iowa’s 17-year winning streak in the Big Ten Conference. His commitment to athletic excellence inspired not only his teammates but also future generations, including his sons Malik and Myles, who have achieved their own remarkable success in wrestling.
After his athletic career, Mike seamlessly applied the lessons learned on the mat to the business world. As the founder and managing partner of Wealth Strategies Financial Group, he has dedicated over three decades to helping his clients achieve financial stability and plan for independence. His leadership and unwavering work ethic have made his firm a cornerstone in the financial services industry.
What truly sets Mike apart, however, is his commitment to giving back. Whether supporting the University of Michigan wrestling program, mentoring young talent, or contributing to charitable initiatives, Mike exemplifies generosity and gratitude in everything he does.
