Continuing our conversations with local leaders- in this episode we had the pleasure of hosting Roberto Gonzalez - Miami-Dade Commissioner from District 11. He told us how we could fix traffic, his journey to becoming an attorney, the future of West Kendall, solving the issues of airports in Miami, the growing aeronautics industry, and if Kendall will turn into its own city.
