Adam Babington, Vice President for External Affairs for Walt Disney World, continues to make The Mouse a force to be reckoned with in the influence world.
The company tapped Tajiana Ancora–Brown, most recently chief of staff for the Department of Revenue, as director of external affairs in July.
That covers strategic communications, issue management, and overseeing the philanthropy budget.
Then, he more recently brought on Jose Gonzalez, most recently a vice president for state affairs at Anheuser-Busch InBev, as director of government and industry relations.
Gonzalez will manage the state and local lobby team and the political budget.
Adrianna Sekula and Leticia Adams, already well known to Florida Politics readers, will remain in their respective roles and report to Gonzalez.
Ancora-Brown came to state government from PR. She’s been Director Of Communications for the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation and Deputy Director of Policy in the Executive Office of the Governor under Gov. Rick Scott.
She received her undergraduate degree from Florida State University and an MBA from the University of Miami School of Business.
Gonzalez has previously worked for Associated Industries of Florida, serving as Vice President for Governmental Affairs for nearly a decade.
He has undergraduate and graduate degrees from the University of Florida.
