Choose Progress — MICAL Stronger, Braver,

Ronnell Armbrister
Candidate for MICAL
I am Ronnell Armbrister, Progressive Liberal Party candidate for MICAL. I am running because the people of Mayaguana, Inagua, Crooked Island, Acklins, and Long Cay deserve the opportunity to thrive at home rather than leave in search of opportunity elsewhere.
As a young and innovative leader serving in MICAL, I believe leadership means listening, showing up, and doing the work that improves everyday life for families. I am committed to building on the relationships formed and the work already started to drive growth, development, and opportunity across every island.
