Phillip Jerez is a former teacher who got involved in local politics as a way of trying making a greater impact outside the classroom. That led him to stints working for Rep. Debbie Wasserman Shultz and serving as a Political Director for Tallahassee Mayor Andrew Gillum's historical 2018 gubernatorial run.
Today, the Bronx-born, Columbia University graduate is President of Progress for Florida, a campaign consulting firm, which works to elect progressive candidates at every rung of the ladder.
