Freedom Tower Reborn: A Beacon of Hispanic Heritage and Resilience
For more than a century, Miami’s Freedom Tower has stood as a symbol of hope, resilience, and identity. Known as the “Ellis Island of the South,” its storied walls welcomed more than 600,000 Cuban exiles between 1962 and 1974, serving as the first embrace of freedom for families fleeing persecution. Today, after a two-year, $25 million restoration, the Freedom Tower has reopened in grand fashion – just in time to remind us of the strength and cultural richness of our Hispanic community.
The reopening is more than a ribbon-cutting; it is a reclamation of memory. With structural repairs, intricate façade restorations, and state-of-the-art galleries, the Tower once again shines as Miami’s “crown jewel.” But its true brilliance lies inside, in the exhibitions that amplify the voices of immigrants and honor their sacrifices.
New installations such as “Libertad, Languages of Migration, and We Carry Our Homes With Us” highlight stories of displacement, resilience, and the universal search for belonging. Each exhibit speaks to the immigrant journey that has shaped not only Miami, but the very essence of Hispanic heritage in the United States.
For Miami’s Cuban, Haitian, Nicaraguan, and Bahamian communities – and for countless others – the Freedom Tower is more than a landmark; it is living testimony. Jorge Malagón Márquez, who first arrived at age five, returned during the reopening and recounted the bittersweet memories of stepping into this building with nothing but a teddy bear. His story, now preserved in the Tower’s Oral History Archive, mirrors thousands of others: stories of courage, trauma, and ultimately triumph.
These narratives remind us that Hispanic heritage is not just about where we come from, but about what we carry forward. It is the music of our language, the flavor of our traditions, and the determination to rebuild and prosper against all odds. As Miami celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month, the Freedom Tower reemerges as a guiding light for new generations. Beyond honoring Cuban exiles, its exhibitions expand to embrace all voices in our multicultural city – affirming that heritage is not confined to one group but shared across borders, languages, and histories.
Ribbon Cutting Ceremony
Miami’s Freedom Tower reopened in grand style with a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by South Florida’s most prominent VIPs, civic leaders, and cultural icons. The event celebrated not only the building’s historic restoration but also its renewed role as a beacon of Hispanic heritage and community pride.
Hispanic Heritage Month Visionaries
Francis Suarez: A Legacy of Family, Heritage, and the City He Loves
In an exclusive interview with Hola Latinos Magazine, Miami’s mayor reflects on his Cuban roots, his family’s influence, and the vibrant culture that continues to shape the city’s future.
Miami’s 43rd Mayor Francis Suarez is a devoted family man and lifelong Miamian. Born and raised in the city, he is the son of former Mayor Xavier Suarez, and has successfully carried forward his family’s legacy of leadership while forging his own path as a modern, forward-looking voice for Miami.
Your father, Xavier Suarez, was Miami’s first Cuban-born mayor, and you’ve carried that legacy forward as the first U.S.-born Cuban American mayor. How has that shaped your perspective on leadership and your responsibility to the Hispanic community?
My father’s election was a milestone not only for our family, but for an entire immigrant community that came here seeking freedom and opportunity. Growing up with that example gave me a profound sense of responsibility to both honor and advance that legacy.
As the first U.S.-born Cuban-American mayor, I represent a generation rooted in Hispanic heritage and fully connected to the American experience. That dual identity shapes my leadership and priorities. We’ve focused on homelessness, crime, taxes, and affordable housing – reducing homelessness to historic lows, keeping Miami one of the safest big cities, maintaining the lowest tax rate in our history, and expanding affordable housing through projects like Edison Towers in Liberty City.
Ultimately, my family’s story is the story of Miami: resilience, opportunity, and the promise of a better tomorrow. My role is not just to continue a legacy, but to create new opportunities for every family in our city.
You’ve been recognized as one of the most prominent Hispanic leaders in American politics. How has your Cuban heritage shaped your values, leadership style, and vision for Miami?
My heritage taught me that liberty must always be defended. Growing up among families who lost everything to communism gave me discipline, respect for democracy, and compassion for those rebuilding their lives.
Those lessons define my leadership: accountability, opportunity, and resilience. I aim to create conditions where families and businesses succeed without being overburdened, and where every resident feels safe and supported. My vision is for Miami to remain a beacon of freedom and opportunity, a place that embraces innovation while honoring the sacrifices of those who came before us.
Miami has long been defined by the Hispanic experience. How do you see Hispanic leadership shaping the city’s future on a national and global stage?
Miami’s majority-Hispanic identity shapes not just our culture but how we engage with the world. The values of hard work, resilience, and love of freedom are now part of our global reputation.
With leaders like Marco Rubio on the national stage, Hispanic leadership is no longer just represented – it’s helping set the agenda. Here in Miami, our success as an immigrant community proves what’s possible. We’re building a hub for innovation, trade, and diplomacy where Hispanic leadership continues to shape not only our city but our role as a connector of the Americas.
Hispanic Heritage Month is about honoring legacy and influence. Who were the Hispanic figures in your life who most inspired your path in public service?
My greatest inspiration has always been my parents. My father, as Miami’s first Cuban-born mayor, showed me that leadership rooted in community and integrity can transform lives. My mother’s strength, faith, and sacrifice gave me the resilience to pursue public service with humility and dedication.
Beyond my family, I’ve been inspired by the countless Cuban and Hispanic families who came to Miami with nothing but rebuilt their lives with perseverance and hope. Their courage reminds me daily that public service is not about titles – it’s about honoring their sacrifices and creating opportunities for the next generation.
Miami has gained visibility as a hub for technology, finance, and innovation. What do you consider your proudest accomplishment in positioning the city globally?
Our transformation into a hub for tech and finance stands out. The “How Can I Help?” campaign invited innovators worldwide to see Miami as a place to build the future. That collaboration helped brand us as the “new Silicon Valley,” attracting billions in investment.
Hosting the G20 Summit is a crowning moment. Welcoming world leaders here validates Miami’s rising global stature and cements our role as an international capital for generations to come.
You often call Miami a “city of the future.” What does that mean for the next generation?
It means a city that works for everyone – safe, affordable, and full of opportunity. We’ve invested in resilience to prepare for climate challenges, modernized transit, and created economic pathways in technology, finance, and the arts.
Culturally, our diversity remains our strength, allowing us to connect naturally with the Americas and beyond. A city of the future ensures every person – no matter where they come from – sees themselves in Miami’s success.
Looking ahead, what’s next on your agenda? Do you see yourself focused on Miami, or on a broader platform nationally?
With just days left in office, my focus remains on serving Miami until my last day. It has been the honor of my life.
Looking forward, Miami’s transformation into a global hub – and now a World Cup host city – offers a model for cities nationwide. Whether I remain local or move to a broader stage, my mission is the same: to fight for freedom, opportunity, and prosperity for every family. My legacy will always begin with the city I love.
Lissette Calderon: Pioneering Change in Miami Real Estate
Lissette Calderon, founder and CEO of Neology Group, has emerged as one of Miami’s most influential developers. As a proud Hispanic woman in a male-dominated field, she has broken barriers and become a role model for women and minorities. Her projects have transformed neighborhoods like the Miami River and Allapattah, always with a focus on inclusion, safety, and cultural representation.
“While my male colleagues are often seen as assertive, I can say the exact same thing in the exact same way and I’m seen as aggressive,” Calderon says. Rather than discouraging her, such experiences fueled her drive to create projects that reflect Miami’s diversity and meet the needs of its residents.
At Neology Group, her hallmark is an emphasis on safety and livability. “We take a comprehensive approach to safety, from extensive security cameras to elevators accessible only to specific floors,” she explains. Developments like The Julia in Allapattah have thrived in leasing and retention, proving that diverse perspectives not only enhance quality of life but also make smart business sense.
Beyond her projects, Calderon advocates for greater female and minority representation in real estate. “Women make the majority of housing decisions – so this is simply smart business,” she says. By opening doors for others and serving as a role model, Calderon continues to leave a lasting mark on Miami’s skyline and the Hispanic community she proudly represents.
Jerry Plush: Empowering a Community, Honoring a Heritage
Jerry Plush is a highly respected financial services leader with more than 35 years of senior executive experience. He currently serves as Chairman, President, and CEO of Amerant Bank, where he has held leadership roles since 2021.
Plush continues to be deeply engaged in civic and cultural initiatives. He serves on the boards of the FIFA World Cup 2026 Miami Host Committee, the Orange Bowl Committee, and the Broward Workshop, and is a member of the CEO Council of the Greater Fort Lauderdale Alliance and the Florida Council of 100.
What makes Jerry Plush especially meaningful to highlight during Hispanic Heritage Month is not only his leadership in banking, but also his recognition of the central role the Hispanic community plays in Miami and beyond. Under his direction, Amerant Bank has become a presenting sponsor of Latinos in Sports (LiS), a platform that celebrates and elevates Latino voices in athletics and culture. At the LiS VIP event, Plush personally opened the program, underscoring Amerant’s commitment to going beyond banking and investing in cultural leadership and community impact.
Through initiatives like these, Jerry Plush has helped Amerant Bank reflect the vibrant, diverse community it serves and where cultural connection is as important as financial growth. His vision bridges professional excellence with cultural engagement, making him an exemplary leader to recognize as part of our Hispanic Heritage highlights.
Jorge M. Pérez: Building Communities, Culture, and Legacy
Few figures have shaped Miami’s skyline and cultural identity as profoundly as Jorge M. Pérez, Chairman and CEO of The Related Group. Born in Argentina to Cuban-exiled parents, Pérez began his career in the late 1970s developing affordable housing in Miami neighborhoods like Little Havana and Homestead. His vision went beyond bricks and mortar – he sought to create pathways for immigrant and working-class families, many of them Hispanic, to find stability and opportunity in a city rapidly redefining itself.
As his company grew into the nation’s largest Hispanic-owned real estate developer, Pérez turned his focus to giving back. One of his most enduring legacies is the Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), where he pledged $35 million in cash and Latin American art. By attaching his name and resources to the museum, Pérez elevated Miami onto the global arts stage while creating a cultural institution that celebrates Latin American and Cuban art – making it accessible to the very communities that helped build the city.
Pérez’s philanthropic reach extends far beyond PAMM. Through the Jorge M. Pérez Family Foundation, he has donated more than $70 million to causes spanning education, health, economic development, and the environment. Programs like his CreARTE grants, managed through The Miami Foundation, sustain local arts and culture organizations – many led by or serving Hispanic communities. His commitment ensures that Miami’s diverse cultural identity thrives for future generations.
At the same time, Pérez continues to innovate with projects like El Espacio 23, a contemporary art space in Allapattah that offers free exhibitions, artist residencies, and a platform for emerging Latin American voices. This initiative reinforces his belief that art and culture should be shared resources, not privileges. By combining his expertise in development with a deep dedication to community and culture, Jorge Pérez has cemented his place not only as the “condo king” of Miami but also as a steward of Hispanic heritage and one of the city’s most influential philanthropists.
Today, he carries on this legacy alongside his two sons, who play an integral role in the family business.
Jon Paul “JP” Pérez, president of Related Group, is a visionary leader driving the company’s future with landmark projects and significant expansion throughout the city of Miami, particularly in the Wynwood neighborhood.
Nicolás “Nick” Pérez, president of the Condominium Division, oversees the company’s condominium portfolio, valued at more than $17 billion.
Alirio Torrealba: Building Communities, Shaping the Future of South Florida
Alirio Torrealba’s journey into real estate is one of reinvention, vision, and purpose. After a successful 25-year career in the automotive industry, he turned his focus to real estate development, founding MG Developer in 2015. What began as a bold leap into a new field has quickly evolved into one of the most dynamic development firms in South Florida.
In less than a decade, Torrealba has positioned MG Developer as the most active developer in Coral Gables, creating distinctive residential projects that redefine modern living. His company’s portfolio now spans an impressive $1.8 billion, encompassing 2,700 units across 4.3 million square feet of development.
In 2021, MG Developer expanded into the multifamily rental sector with the launch of Metro Parc in Hialeah, a transformative project that opened in 2025. The momentum continues with Metro Parc South and Metro Station 1, both currently under construction and reshaping the city’s rental landscape. Meanwhile, in Coral Gables, The Village – a luxury enclave of 48 residences – is set to debut in 2025, bringing a new level of elegance to the community. Looking ahead, Torrealba is already envisioning a landmark mixed-use project in North Bay Village, further cementing his role as a forward-thinking developer shaping Miami’s future.
Beyond bricks and mortar, Torrealba’s vision extends deeply into philanthropy and cultural engagement. MG Developer is a strong supporter of the arts, a passion that reflects Torrealba’s belief in building not only homes but also vibrant, connected communities. His commitment is equally evident in healthcare: with a $2 million donation to Baptist Health, MG Developer is helping expand access to life-saving care. Torrealba also supports FundaHígado, an initiative advancing innovative treatments that save lives.
For Alirio Torrealba, development is not just about structures – it is about people, culture, and creating lasting impact. His story is a testament to how vision and dedication can transform not only skylines but lives, making him one of South Florida’s most influential leaders.
Alicia Cervera Sr. & Alicia Cervera Lamadrid: A Legacy of Vision and Empowerment
From Havana to Miami’s glittering skyline, the Cervera name tells a story of vision, perseverance, and profound impact on the Hispanic community. Alicia Cervera Sr., arriving in Miami as a Cuban exile, not only became a pioneer in real estate but also redefined the role of women in a male-dominated industry. As the founder of Cervera Real Estate, Miami’s first brokerage dedicated to developer sales, she gave Latin American buyers a trusted voice and opened doors for Hispanic families to invest in Miami at a time when representation was rare.
Her daughter, Alicia Cervera Lamadrid, embraced that legacy and expanded it into a global force. “I never planned on building the career I have today, but life had a different plan for me,” she reflects. For Lamadrid, real estate has always been more than business – it’s about “helping people find their dream home… I needed to be part of that happier place.”
Both mother and daughter succeeded in a world where most developers were – and still are – men. “It starts with feeling empowered with who you are and knowing that within that power lies the opportunity,” Lamadrid emphasizes. Their determination not only broke barriers for women but also made space for Hispanic voices in Miami’s most influential industry.
Together, the mother-daughter team has transformed entire neighborhoods – Brickell, Downtown Miami, South of Fifth, Edgewater – into thriving cultural and economic hubs. “Miami, a city built by immigrants, is now at the center of the world… we put it all in a special blender called Miami to create something unique that elevates the city and is a model for the world,” says Lamadrid. Their projects not only reshaped the skyline but also gave countless Hispanic professionals careers, mentorship, and opportunities to succeed.
But at the heart of it all is Alicia Sr., who at 95 years old remains a source of inspiration. As Lamadrid puts it: “My mom has always been a force,” a testament to the power of resilience and the foundation she built for her family, her company, and her community. Beyond billions in sales and over 115 luxury towers, the Cerveras’ greatest legacy may be empowerment – proof that vision, family, and perseverance can change a city forever.

With more than 14 years of progressive leadership in hospitality, Gutierrez has left his mark across some of the world’s most prestigious hotel brands, including Waldorf Astoria, Conrad, and Highgate Hotels.

This dedication has not gone unnoticed. In 2025, he was named HR Leader of the Year by both HR Miami and HRABC – an honor that recognizes his ability to blend strategic leadership with a people-first philosophy.
“Leadership is not confined to office walls – it ripples into families, communities, and futures.” – Job Gutierrez

Dr. Thomas Utset-Ward: Leader in Pediatric Orthopedic Oncology
Dr. Thomas Utset-Ward does a remarkable job helping children with complex orthopedic conditions, restoring mobility, hope, and quality of life. He is one of only seven pediatric orthopedic oncology specialists in the United States and a leader in this highly specialized field. At Nicklaus Children’s Hospital’s Orthopedic, Sports Medicine & Spine Institute, he combines cutting-edge surgical techniques, innovative technologies, and compassionate care to transform the lives of his patients and their families.
He is a member of the American Association of Latino Orthopedic Surgeons (AALOS), the Children’s Oncology Group, the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society, and the American Orthopaedic Association’s Emerging Leaders Program. Through his involvement in these organizations, Dr. Utset-Ward contributes not only to medical innovation but also to strengthening networks that support Latino physicians and communities across the country.
Born and raised in South Florida, and once a Nicklaus Children’s patient himself, Dr. Utset-Ward’s journey has come full circle. Bilingual in English and Spanish, he connects with a diverse community of families, ensuring that both patients and parents feel supported and understood during their most challenging times.
At Nicklaus Children’s, Dr. Utset-Ward specializes in the surgical treatment of benign and malignant bone and soft-tissue tumors, such as sarcomas, as well as complex limb-sparing reconstructions and pediatric joint replacement. His work includes pioneering methods such as custom magnetically expandable implants that grow with the child, advanced limb-salvage techniques, and rotationplasty. In many cases, patients are able to walk again the very same day as surgery.
In addition, he leads the hospital’s Surgical Innovation Program, directing the 3D Printing and Modeling initiative. This program integrates virtual and augmented reality, virtual surgical planning, patient-specific guides, and life-size 3D models to increase precision in the most complex cases.
Dr. Utset-Ward has published in peer-reviewed journals, authored textbook chapters, presented at national and international conferences, and serves as a reviewer for orthopedic journals. He represents the next generation of physician innovators: blending advanced science, compassion, and community connection to provide world-class care to children and families across South Florida and beyond.
Melitsa Waage: Elevating Connections Through Epic Talks
Melitsa Waage, the visionary Latina CEO behind Epic Talks, has transformed the way entrepreneurs in Miami – and beyond – connect, collaborate, and grow. Frustrated by traditional networking events that lacked authenticity, she created Epic Talks as a platform where meaningful relationships and actionable insights take center stage. With passion, resilience, and her cultural roots as guiding forces, Waage has built a community that not only empowers entrepreneurs but also celebrates the richness of Hispanic heritage.
How did you first get started on your entrepreneur journey and what inspired you to create Epic Talks?
I always knew I wanted to run my own business and create something meaningful. I’ve always been passionate about helping people and connecting with others who are building extraordinary lives. When I started attending networking events, I often left feeling unfulfilled – there was no real value, no depth, and no meaningful connections. So I asked myself: If it doesn’t exist, why not create it?
As a Latina CEO, how has your cultural background influenced your leadership style and vision?
As a Latina, passion, love, and resilience are woven into who I am. I lead my business with that same spirit – showing care, generosity, and a commitment to lifting others up. My cultural roots have shaped my leadership into one of service and empowerment, and they inspire me to build a vision of community and collaboration that truly changes lives.
Epic Talks has become a powerful platform for networking and empowerment. What do you believe makes it unique?
Epic Talks is unique because it offers variety, depth, and experience. Each month we focus on a new topic relevant to entrepreneurs – from branding and marketing to wealth creation, AI, real estate, and more.
Hispanic Heritage Month celebrates culture, resilience, and achievement. What does the celebration mean to you personally?
For me, Hispanic Heritage Month is a reminder of faith, perseverance, and gratitude. Every milestone in my journey has been guided by God. By trusting Him fully, I’ve found the strength to overcome challenges and keep building. This celebration reflects not just my culture and resilience, but also the achievements that faith and determination make possible.
Mario Murgado: Driving Success with Purpose
Mario Murgado’s story is one of resilience, vision, and determination. Arriving in the U.S. from Cuba during the Freedom Flights, he built a life rooted in gratitude for the opportunities his family found here. Today, he is one of the most respected leaders in the automotive industry, overseeing dealerships across multiple states and representing world-class brands like Honda, Mercedes-Benz, and Bentley. As Chairman of F.A.C.E. (Facts About Cuban Exiles) and Chair of the Board of Advisors for FIU’s CasaCuba, he heads organizations dedicated to protecting reputation, preserving legacy, and amplifying Cuban exile stories. Beyond business, Murgado remains deeply connected to his Cuban heritage, his community, and the values of family and service.
You are very active with the exile community. Tell us about that.
It’s a very special mission. The organization I’m involved with was created in 1982 to protect the image of the Cuban exile community. Our parents and grandparents sacrificed everything to come here, and it’s our responsibility to honor and defend that legacy. Immigrants, not just Cubans, are living proof of the greatness of America because they still believe in the American dream.
How did your journey in the automotive industry begin?
I came to the U.S. in 1966 through the Freedom Flights, grew up in Chicago, and later returned to Miami. In 1981, I started in the auto industry at the Raymond Organization and worked my way up over 20 years from salesperson to CEO. In 2001, I left to start Brickell Motors. We began with three employees and one struggling dealership. Today, the group has over 2,000 team members nationwide.
What was the secret to turning that first struggling store into a thriving operation?
Vision, discipline, and people. You start with the end in mind – what kind of company you want to build – and then work backwards. For us, it meant creating a foundation of values, building a strong culture, and being intentional every day. If you chase excellence, deliver exceptional service, and invest in your people, good things will happen. Relationships are the heart of every business.
Your growth has been impressive. How have you expanded beyond Miami?
Our vision was always long-term. We began in Little Havana, then expanded into Florida, Chicago, New Jersey, Virginia, and California. Today, we operate five campuses in five states with 30 dealerships. Along the way, we’ve added brands like Audi, Infiniti, Alfa Romeo, Maserati, Mercedes-Benz, Bentley, and Cadillac. But I never forget who brought me to the dance – Honda was the foundation of everything we’ve built.
You’ve mentioned community often. Why is giving back so important to you?
Because to whom much is given, much is expected. I focus on two things: children and education. I serve as a trustee at St. Thomas University and have supported Nicklaus Children’s Hospital for 17 years. I’m also passionate about CasaCuba at FIU, which we hope will become a cultural home where future generations can learn about Cuban history, art, and contributions. Philanthropy wasn’t always natural for us as immigrants, but we’ve grown into it. It’s part of being responsible members of this community.
Out of all your achievements, what makes you most proud?
My family. My sons are now grown, raising families of their own, and I’m blessed to be a grandfather. On the professional side, I take pride in knowing our company supports 2,000 employees and, by extension, nearly 8,000 family members. That responsibility is profound. Only in America could a Cuban exile like me live this dream.
His journey shows how vision, hard work, and commitment to community can transform not only a business but also leave a lasting impact on society.
