Dear Friends:

When the Governor asked me to serve as the Secretary of the Department of Business and Professional Regulation, I was honored to have the opportunity to work directly with the men and women who are shaping Florida's economic future. I'm looking forward to taking on the challenge of making this state the best place for businesses to start and thrive.

Our top priority will be reducing the weight of unnecessary regulation on businesses and professionals so we can focus on our primary mission — getting Floridians back to work. Here at DBPR, we know that our customers come first and we will strive to license efficiently and regulate fairly.

Our state has faced some tough challenges, and Florida's businesses and professionals need our help and our service now more than ever. If you have any suggestions for how we can improve, I welcome the input. It's important that we continue to improve wherever possible. I am committed to serving you as best I can, with the help of the DBPR family.
