Arrow Group is expanding its practice with the addition of Glen Gilzean, who will take on the title of senior adviser.

“I’m excited to join Arrow Group and help further their mission of redefining government affairs consulting,” Gilzean said. “I look forward to working with the talented team to drive meaningful change and make a positive impact in communities across Florida.”

Gilzean spent much of his career in education, founding the nonprofit Educate Today and serving as vice president of Advocacy and Community Affairs at Step Up for Students, the primary facilitator of school vouchers in Florida.

Notably, Gilzean has been a go-to appointee for Gov. Ron DeSantis. He has been named to the state Ethics Commission, Central Florida Tourism Oversight District and served a controversial stretch as interim Orange County Supervisor of Elections.

Arrow Group is the government affairs arm of full-service business law firm Gunster, which launched in January through a strategic partnership with Anfield Consulting. Balido, the former head of Anfield, leads Arrow Group, with Ron Brisé serving as Senior Policy Adviser.

Gilzean’s hire marks the second significant addition to the firm this year, following Kim Shugar, a veteran public servant with extensive
