President & CEO
At GMBHA, we believe that when we act collectively, we're most effective in mobilizing our combined resources to promote our members' interests and effect change. Our goal is to improve the overall quality of the "Miami experience" for all. We educate our members to understand and work with their governmental leaders as a group. Our educational institutions provide us with internship programs, information about global conferences that focus on sustainable institutions, and industry trends.
Through a concerted approach, we enhance our members' abilities to optimize their customers' experience, and as a result, we improve the overall quality of our destination - Miami!
