I am honored to serve as your Coral Gables Mayor since 2021. During my tenure, we have put our residents first, advocated to bring greater transparency to Coral Gables government and always fought to prevent your taxpayer dollars from being wasted or misspent. With your support, we will continue building upon the great work we have done.
I love our city, and I’ve worked hard to protect it from overdevelopment. I’ve stood against high-density projects that don’t fit our community and will continue fighting for responsible growth that keeps Coral Gables beautiful and unique.
One of my proudest accomplishments has been securing five new parks downtown without costing taxpayers a dime—and I’m not stopping there. I’m committed to adding five more, ensuring we have even more green spaces to enjoy with family and friends.
Keeping our neighborhoods safe isn’t just a promise—it’s something I’ve delivered on. I’ve added 15 new police officers and 15 new firefighters, invested over $100 million in public safety, and overseen the construction and renovation of fire stations across our city. Under my leadership, Coral Gables has reached its lowest crime rate in history, and we’ve launched innovative programs like Public Safety Aides to keep our streets even safer. I’ll never stop working to protect our community and the people who call it home.
For over a decade, I’ve made it a priority to be accessible—holding open office hours every Friday, hosting town halls, and fighting to move elections to November so more of you can have a say in our future. Coral Gables is our home, and I believe every resident should have a voice in shaping it.
