Miguel Angel Gabela came to the United States from Cuba at the age of 6 in 1970. Like many of you, his family made many sacrifices to come to the United States and build a life here. Early on, Miguel learned to work hard and always put his family first. Miguel and his wife, Mariela, have been married for 36 years and have created a beautiful family together. They are proud parents to Stacy and Caroline and grandparents to Joaquin. Miguel opened his own business 40 years ago and since then has lived and worked in District 1. He volunteered his time to serve on the City of Miami Zoning Board where he defended the individual’s rights and interests, usually in conflict with powerful stakeholders and larger entities. Miguel Angel Gabela looks forward to continue this same attitude as a public servant and keep his campaign promises.
