Maverick PAC (MavPAC) announced its 40 under 40 awards on Tuesday in Miami, celebrating a list of young conservative professionals in politics, business, law and entrepreneurship.
Florida is very well represented among those selected with 19 of the 40 honorees hailing from the Sunshine State.
Among Florida’s political highlights are Josh Cooper with NG Strategies; Glen Gilzean with Step Up for Students; Alberto Martinez, in the office of Senator Marco Rubio; and Michael Sevi, who works for Governor Scott.
Armando Guiterrez, with Conglomerate Investment Co; Jose Oliva with Oliva Cigars; and Andrew White with Franklin Street Financial are Florida’s three selected entrepreneurs.
Four elected officials also made the cut: Florida Speaker Will Weatherford; Senator Anitere Flores; Congressman Ron DeSantis; and School Board Member Carlos Curbelo.
Proportionally, Florida dominated the business honorees: Carlos Arboleda, COI Access; Lucas Boyce, Orlando Magic; E. Tyler Cathey, Englander Fischer LLP; John Couriel, Kobre & Kim; Edward Crawford, Goldman Sachs; Rob Gidel Jr, Holland & Knight; and Justin Wilson, The Villages, will all be honored at the MavPAC’s Annual Conference, July 12-14, in Miami.
