Plans for Miami-Dade County's Future | Daniella Levine Cava

In this very special episode, we had the honor of hosting our Miami-Dade County Mayor - Daniella Levine Cava. After being a social worker, she decided to step into the office and make a change. We discussed her background, how she cut taxes twice, the boom of the River area, what's wrong with the MIA Airport, hiring local businesses, future plans, preparing for the World Cup, and more! Special thanks to River Landing for hosting us at this beautiful location. Enjoy!
