Haines City Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) Manager/Consultant Alex Abraham has a doctorate in biomedical engineering. But these days, he’s focused on restoring the health of his city, rejuvenating the properties within his community.
The son of entrepreneurs, Abraham also does commercial development, property management and migrant labor transportation.
But it’s his role as a corporate strategist that led him to his current role with the Haines City CRA.
“I do business consulting, general operations, working with both municipalities and private companies, and help them to figure out how to make their processes or operations more efficient,” said Abraham, who was initially brought in solely as a consultant for the CRA, before being asked to manage the entity on an interim basis while the city searches for a longtime fit for the role.
Abraham wasted no time rolling up his sleeves and getting to work.
