When Carolina Herrera moved to Miami from Colombia, she hoped to use her law degree to get a job at a law firm. Instead, her first job was an assistant in the construction department at Lennar. “Once I started seeing the company, what we build, our customers and the product, I completely fell in love,” Ms. Herrera said, “and here I am.” 

Today, Ms. Herrera is director of land operations at Lennar and the 2018 president of the South Florida’s Builders Association. 

Through the Builders Association, Ms. Herrera works to make Miami livable for all potential homebuyers. “We assist with advocacy to help the industry … and the city overall,” she said. 

Miami Today reporter Gabi Maspons interviewed Ms. Herrera at the Lennar offices in Doral. The interview was recorded by Jahmoukie Dayle, and can be found Friday at http://bit.ly/2uNHy0Q.
