Continued Success by Every Measure
top three. In 2024, new research has revealed the three leading sectors today are:
By every measure, Palm Beach County is a tale of growth and success. From the number of families and companies that have moved or expanded here, to the jobs that have been created, the corporate and leisure travelers visiting our shores, the new facilities being built, or any other general measure of prosperity, we check all the boxes.
We have enjoyed recordbreaking growth during and since the pandemic. Even before the shutdown convinced countless thousands of young professionals and top employers that business in the sunshine was an ideal way to work, live and raise a family, we were attracting new residents to our stretch of paradise.
We’re still luring new executives in record numbers. The county in 2023 welcomed a net migration inflow of 20,000 people, and the population over the past 50 years has more than tripled, bringing the total to more than 1.5 million.
In Palm Beach County, we’re highly collaborative and undeniably intentional in our mission to create opportunities for prosperity. We’re also forward thinking. Our traditional industries have evolved into sophisticated, complementary sectors. Although still important industries, no longer are tourism, agriculture, and construction the
Finance (#1 for economic impact) Health care / life science (#1 for jobs) Corporate headquarters (#1 for average salary)
Our focus on financial services drew more than 200 companies to open their doors here, resulting in the county becoming known in financial circles as “Wall Street South.” They join 539 companies that call the county their corporate or regional HQ. You might know some of the business leaders here: Carrier, BlackRock, Citadel, Amazon, ADT, Pratt & Whitney, NewDay USA, FPL and Florida Crystals to name a few.
Still critically important to our diversity are such in-demand sectors as high-tech, fintech and cleantech; aviation and aerospace; and an agricultural sector that feeds the nation.
Our life science and health care sector, anchored by the Herbert Wertheim UF Scripps Institute for Biomedical Innovation & Technology, the Max Planck Florida Institute for Neuroscience and the Stiles-Nicholson Brain Institute, is home to some 625 firms. Manufacturing and logistics facilities include 6 million square feet of distribution centers— and vast western acreage primed for development.
—Kelly Smallridge PRESIDENT AND CEO
ABOUT BRIAN SEYMOUR
BDB Board Chairman Brian Seymour has helped guide Palm Beach County’s historic growth. In his role as a land use and property rights attorney, Brian has worked on both luxury and workforce housing developments and negotiated the deal to bring a $135 million Major League Baseball Spring Training complex to West Palm Beach. Along with the BDB, Brian is active in local chambers of commerce, the Economic Council of Palm Beach County, and Leadership Florida. He also serves on the board of directors of the Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County and nationally on the board of trustees of the Jewish Federations of North America.
Palm Beach County epitomizes “progrowth” in a state known for its lowtax and regulatory- and businessfriendly policies. Our retention strategy and Growth/Infrastructure Task Force is working to ensure this historic wave of professionals and companies keep calling the county home.
Our top-performing public, private and parochial schools are expanding. Critical workforce housing is going vertical. Palm Beach International Airport (PBI) is planning terminal and runway growth, expanding on its role as part of the region’s six international airports and deepwater seaports that provide vital access to the hemisphere and the globe. And for employers in need of highly trained workers, a county-
wide talent recruitment campaign will debut in 2025.
Our success speaks to the partnerships we’ve nurtured. The Business Development Board of Palm Beach County partners with our 39 municipalities, as well as state and county leaders, including the Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners; CareerSource Palm Beach County; the Economic Council; the Lake Okeechobee Regional Economic Alliance; area chambers of commerce; SelectFlorida; and public and private educational institutions.
Thanks to the support of all our partners and the greater community, Palm Beach County’s success story continues to be told—and to bring prosperity to all.

A Letter from Mayor Maria Sachs
Welcome to Palm Beach County
A premier destination for business, living, and leisure. Discover a community where innovation meets opportunity.
Palm Beach County has earned a global reputation as a world- class live-worklearn-and-play destination. From its founding more than 100 years ago to the remarkable transformation it continues to enjoy today, the county and its 39 municipalities have unique characteristics connected by shared commonalities.
In Palm Beach County, our diversity defines us. We’re home to a multitude of Fortune 500 companies and their local operations, thriving mid-sized corporations, and startups eager to flourish in a unique ecosystem. That was before the pandemic, which saw our businessfriendly appeal and, yes, our inviting climate, lure upwards of 150 companies to relocate or expand here in the last five years alone.
We’re also home to diverse and indemand business sectors. We’ve long been known for high-tech, fintech and cleantech; manufacturing and logistics; aerospace and aviation; and a host of others. Our agricultural sector reigns as the “king of winter vegetables.”
Recent research commissioned by the Business Development Board of Palm Beach C ounty identified the county’s leading business sectors. They are finance (#1 for economic impact), health care / life science (#1 for jobs); and corporate headquarters (#1 for average salary). With the scores of financial service firms and hedge funds that now call the county home, we are officially “Wall Street South.”
We’re also defined here by what unites us. From our Atlantic beaches to the edge of the Everglades, and north to south, the county features abundant opportunity. Employers find the current and future workforce being honed today at the highly rated School District of Palm Beach County, area colleges and universities, and CareerSource Palm Beach County. Together, they’re preparing a steady stream of right-skilled talent for in-demand, high-salary jobs.
Based at a global crossroads convenient for international trade and leisure travel alike, we welcome arrivals from across the country, throughout the hemisphere or around the globe. And the Brightline high-speed rail service has placed Palm Beach County at the center of the state’s business and tourism markets.
Another unifying characteristic is our collaborative public and private partnerships. County and municipal leaders encourage smart, sustainable development that has delivered millions of square feet of office and industrial space available now or under construction for current and future opportunities. Under the leadership of the Business Development Board of Palm Beach County, expanding and newly arriving companies alike receive the critical guidance, targeted economic development programs, and relocation and expansion initiatives needed to thrive. Well into our second century, Palm Beach C ounty continues to enjoy our role as a leading 21st century marketplace—one that epitomizes what it means to be a great place to live, work, learn and play.
Palm Beach County continues to enjoy our role as a leading 21st century marketplace.”

Palm Beach is the Prettiest Place on Earth. It’s Like Candyland
From Garden City to Palm Beach, Meg McCartney shares her love for this charming paradise and its hidden gems.
From the first time Meg McCartney visited Palm Beach three decades ago, something captured her imagination.
Maybe it was the sunrise over the Atlantic, or walking along Worth Avenue, or staying at the Colony Hotel. It was a different world from her home in Garden City, Long Island.
“I fell in love with it,” she recalls. “I’d even come by myself. I would zip down for a weekend. I always had it in my heart that one day I would live here.”
When she and husband James moved farther out on Long Island, McCartney discovered a circle of friends who split their seasons between New York and Palm Beach.
Twenty years ago, the family began coming monthly to get
its Palm Beach fix. It was “so quaint and scenic and elegant,” she recalls. When she first came, she didn’t know a soul. Ten years ago, she discovered locals and friends from up north who also wintered and would walk the avenue, enjoy lunches, or socialize at charitable events.
Her home on the island now is a charming pied-a-terre nestled between the ocean and marina just off Worth Avenue.
An aficionado of fashion, arts, gardening, antiques and boutiques, McCartney shares her finds from Long Island to Palm Beach on her Instagram @themarvelousmrsmccartney.
“It’s like this trifecta of fun and friends in a place so beautiful,” she said. “There’s nowhere else like it on the planet.”
FAST FACTS
Where will you take a firsttime visitor: The first stop is always Worth Avenue, then over to The Colony Hotel or have a little lunch at Swifty’s, and have a cocktail at the HMF at The Breakers.
Where will we find you? I walk to the ocean every day.
Where are the hidden gems? The gardens at The Society of the Four Arts or Antique Row along Dixie Highway.

FAST FACTS
Number of employees: More than 150 at Palm Beach International Airport, and more than 20,000 globally
Customers served: Domestic customers, including those based in South Florida, and those traveling through Palm Beach County from international markets
Average commute to work: Typically 30-45 minutes
Where Sophistication Takes Flight
Gulfstream
Aerospace Corp. has more than 20,000 employees strategically positioned worldwide to support its growing fleet.
More than 150 of those work at its Palm Beach County Customer Support service center, servicing Gulfstream business jets and keeping them aloft.
Palm Beach County holds many memories for me. I feel so grateful to be working at a world-class organization and living in a world-class place.”
Gulfstream is a wholly owned subsidiary of General Dynamics Corporation, an almost $40 billion aerospace and defense company. Gulfstream designs, develops and services its supermidsized G280, high-performing G650 and G650ER and next-generation fleet, the G400, G500, G600, G700 and G800. All Gulfstream aircraft are backed by Gulfstream Customer Support, which includes the Palm Beach maintenance, repair and overhaul, or MRO, facility, part of the worldwide Gulfstream service network.
Since opening its facility here in 2020, Gulfstream has grown its local Palm Beach workforce by more than 50 percent. Gulfstream has developed a number of programs in the greater Palm Beach area to help create career
pathways for the next-generation workforce into this industry. These include college internships, high school apprenticeships and a partnership with the U.S. Department of Defense Skillbridge program to help military personnel transition into the civilian workforce. Gulfstream’s employees also volunteer at the Boynton Aerospace Science Academy at Boynton Beach High School. Gulfstream has donated parts of a G550 aircraft interior for students’ hands-on learning and introduction to the industry.
Gulfstream recently received Federal Aviation Administration certification for the all-new Gulfstream G700, “and we are proud to service this aircraft right here at Gulfstream Palm Beach,” said Morina, who moved to South Florida to earn her airframe and powerplant mechanic certification as a young adult—just like the workforce she’s helping train for the future.
Where the Sky’s (Not) the Limit
Drive out to northwest Palm Beach County, and chances are you’ll hear jet, rocket and helicopter engines roaring to life from deep in the woods. This is home to the critical aviation and aerospace sector serving the nation’s commercial, defense and space needs.
No player is more important than Aerojet Rocketdyne, an L3Harris Technologies company. From its facilities here, engineers and technicians design, manufacture, assemble and test RL10 rocket engines, as well as major c omponents for the RS25 booster engines that power NASA’s Space Launch System rocket as part of the agency’s Artemis deep space exploration campaign.
“Aviation and aerospace are deeply rooted in Palm Beach County dating back to the 1950s,” said Desmond Greene, director of finance and business operations for defense and commercial space launch systems at Aerojet Rocketdyne. The facility was founded to develop a liquid hydrogen-powered aircraft engine, part of the then top-secret “Project Suntan” for the Department of
Defense. While work on the hydrogen-powered aircraft engine was eventually abandoned, the technology derived from the effort led to the creation of the RL10 rocket engine, which has been built in Palm Beach County for more than 60 years.
“It was a key location to keep the project top secret,” Greene said. “The only milestone the RL10 has not (yet) achieved is launching humans into space.”
Today, the secret is out. The company, along with Sikorsky Aircraft, a Lockheed Martin company; Pratt & Whitney, an RTX business; and Northrop Grumman, among others, are part of the nation’s second-largest aerospace cluster.
This makes for great growth opportunities for employers and engineers alike as they take space exploration and Palm Beach County’s reputation sky high— and beyond.
Palm Beach County is the birthplace and home of the RL10 rocket engine that has launched hundreds of satellites to orbit and sent spacecraft to explore every planet in our solar system.

West Palm Beach: The Place for Perfect Smiles
I always was attracted not only to the U.S., but to the benefits of Florida,” said the Germany native. “I enjoy coming to work every day.”
To Achim Michael Renner, there’s no better place to grow his industry-leading, full-service dental laboratory than Palm Beach County. And he has the success and smiles to prove his point.
From Precision Esthetics Dental Laboratory’s 8,000square-foot West Palm Beach company headquarters and state-of-the-art teaching and technology center, Renner’s team of master dental technicians and specialists have deployed a unique combination of his entrepreneurial vision, European craftsmanship and made-in-America quality, combined with world-class customer service, to deliver some 350,000 implant cases for more than 1,250 dental practices nationwide.
The company's founder and CEO traces his career back 40 years. After graduating from the esteemed Misch Institute and performing an extensive internship in Germany, Renner was recruited in 1989 to work with a respected dental lab in Peoria, Illinois. In 1998, he took over its two South Florida sites.
Success followed. He grew the operation by 50 percent in the first few years. Since opening the new facility in 2021, business has almost tripled.
With AI precision and computer machining touched by skilled handcraftsmanship, his team of 70 accomplishes the work of 500. An eager mentor, Renner has shared his insights at more than 900 lectures globally on dental implants and esthetic dentistry.
In the 35 years since he arrived, the region has become a year-round work and lifestyle destination. He’ll host team and client lunches outdoors, showing off his business as much as the South Florida climate.
“I always was attracted not only to the U.S., but to the benefits of Florida,” said the Germany native. “I enjoy coming to work every day.”
Where Innovation Comes to Life
Based in the Boca Raton Innovation Campus (BRiC) that itself was the birthplace of the IBM PC back in the 1970s, is Canon U.S.A., Inc.’s new Canon Americas Customer Innovation Center (CIC), a 127,000-square-foot facility that employs 120 people locally.
From machines on the showroom floor to sample products on the shelves and walls, CIC Manager Jennifer Diaz calls the space “interior design meets industrial glam.”
When Canon debuts one of these massive devices, a model is shipped to the CIC for engineers and customers to run it through its courses. Engineers will test various forms of paper and other media. At the only center of its kind in the hemisphere, upward of 600 customers a year travel from the U.S., Canada and Latin America to demo the devices.
“Because customers are making a capital equipment investment, it’s not just walk in,
walk out,” she said. “We spend the day with them, pushing the limits, stressing our machines, and making sure their investment is worth it.”
Boca was the perfect location. World-class restaurants are nearby. Highly skilled talent easily commute from across South Florida. The marketing team will even travel the Brightline high-speed rail to industry events hosted in Central Florida. Proximity to three international airports puts the CIC close to customers from across the Americas.
So the next time you receive a bill, book or photo card, consider that the printing technology behind it may have been perfected in Boca Raton.
“It’s usually not a hard sell to get people from the Northeast down to our facility in the winter months.”

FAST FACTS
About that name: UOVO, pronounced “woh-voh,” is derived from the Italian word for egg, a symbol of fragility.
Fully resilient: UOVO’s Palm Beach Westgate facility was constructed to withstand wind speeds up to 170 MPH.
Plus: The newest facility in Palm Beach County is 50,000 sq. ft., a high-tech addition to the logistics sector.
The Right Place For Priceless Valuables
Many longtime and newly arrived Palm Beach County residents share a common need:
We want to be in business where our customers live, work, and play. And for luxury collectors, Palm Beach County was a clear choice.”
Preservation and protective storage for valuable possessions. UOVO has created the perfect home for such valuables as art, wine, fashion and contemporary collections, archives, cultural artifacts, and rare objects.
UOVO was founded a decade ago in New York by real estate developer and art collector Steve Guttman to serve fellow collectors, as well as museums, nonprofits, and art advisors. Its locations in top U.S. markets include two West Palm Beach facilities that have opened since 2021. Its latest—a newly built, 50,000square-foot facility on Westgate Avenue—is considered the first of its kind in the region. The facility is constructed above the 100year floodplain with high-velocity, wind-resistent materials and fullbuilding generators. Fully climate controlled, it boasts 20-foot-high ceilings and oversized elevators. The new site is just seven minutes from its first location in the market on Haverhill Road.
“Our name reflects UOVO’s core mission to be the finest stewards of our clients’ most precious
valuables,” said Nicole Levinson, the company’s Chief Marketing Officer and a veteran of the luxury hospitality trade whose service UOVO seeks to reflect. “We double down on customer service. People are entrusting us with their most precious treasures.”
Its services also reflect the unique needs of Palm Beach County’s collector and high-networth community. They include digital inventory management, secure transportation, packing and crating, archiving solutions, art installation, photography. In-house transportation puts Palm Beach International Airport and the island of Palm Beach within convenient reach.
With private viewing galleries, an onsite café, and best-in-class and confidential “white-glove treatment,” UOVO is unlike anything available in the market.
“The experience doesn’t start when people walk into their storage units, but the moment they walk into the lobby,” Levinson said. “Palm Beach is now a 365-day-ayear community. This was the perfect market for our level of service.”

Best of Both Worlds
William and Liz Wolcott were living and working in Manhattan when they began thinking about where they’d want to raise a young family. The New York suburbs first came to mind. Then a trip to Palm Beach County turned their attention south.
“I
never thought I’d see the day when a trading business could be run anywhere but New York, London or Hong Kong. But the world changed, and the business is at home in Palm Beach.”
When William’s pitch to his boss about relocating to the Goldman Sachs office on Palm Beach was OK’d, they pulled up stakes and moved to Florida.
The couple’s home in West Palm Beach’s SoSo neighborhood is central to everything important to them. William is a 10-minute commute from his office, where he co-heads U.S. Credit Trading. Just to the west is Palm Beach International Airport, where he can board a plane to Goldman’s offices in the Northeast, Los Angeles, even London.
“I can leave my house at 5 in the morning and be in New York at 9 a.m.,” he said. Nearby, the Brightline train is ready to whisk him to meet clients and team members in Miami.
William’s network has grown, especially among clients who have moved here since the pandemic—people who, ironically, he saw less often in New York.
Since arriving in late 2021, the couple has put down roots as another smart and successful young family that now calls the county home. Liz, who sold her health-and-wellness business in New York, is scouting new opportunities while raising their toddler daughter. Their son attends a local private school, where the couple has grown close with other families, some of whom moved because of COVID and today call the county their home.
“It’s been a pleasant surprise. We found a community that I didn’t perceive was there when we made the move,” he said. “It was a quality-of-life upgrade, and I didn’t have to reinvent myself or my career.”
Palm Beach County, The Best Medicine for Life and Work
After 25 years spent working and living in Boston’s biotech marketplace, Evan Rachlin wanted a new place to hang his shingle. Two years ago, he came to Palm Beach County to launch his venture capital firm.
It wasn’t a hard decision. His father was a South Florida native, and Rachlin has close relatives throughout the county.
“I’ve been coming down here for Christmas and Easter for more than 30 years,” said Rachlin, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Ascenta Capital. The firm invests in biotech companies conducting early human trials.
After moving here, Rachlin came to see South Florida as a suburb of Boston and New York City. Case in point: During a recent video call with another Boston biotech exec, the two realized they were across the street from each other in Palm Beach County. They decided to
meet for coffee. “People often forget I’m not in Boston anymore.”
But it is close at hand, thanks to that “jewel that is PBI.” The airport “reframes how you think about travel and commuting,” he said. “I can leave my house, and then in 45 minutes, I’m flying north. You can get so much more time back in your life.”
During dark winters, when he used to have only indoor leisure activity options, Rachlin may be at the beach or swimming or biking. Work meetings can be held outdoors.
“Fresh ocean air just recharges you like nothing else can,” said Rachlin, who isn’t bashful about his enthusiasm. “After a couple of years, I feel like I’m on the other side of the welcoming committee.”
Palm Beach County feels like an elective class in college. People are choosing to be here and finding a frictionless transition. You work harder because you’re energized. This whole area is on an optimistic upswing.”

Where will you take friends visiting from out of town: If they are looking for kid-friendly activities, we love the Cox Science Center or the Palm Beach Zoo. Then a casual dinner at Downtown Palm Beach Gardens, where the kids can play in the fountains. For something a little more upscale, we love the Beacon in Jupiter. It's always a hit with outof-towners, who love the idea of eating on the water, watching the boats pass by with the Jupiter lighthouse off in the distance.
J.J. and family
We love that we can be outside and active all year around. I like to joke that the downside to living here is 72 degrees means you need a sweater, and anything colder means I might not leave the house.”
RootsGrowToday Into Tomorrow’s SUCCESS
Joseph J. “J.J.” Sass and his wife, Cristina, were lifelong northeasterners when COVID convinced them they needed a change of venue.
J.J., a graduate student when the pandemic hit, and Cristina, a software engineer, were living in New York City. Working remotely, they moved in with Cristina’s parents in New Jersey. They thought it would last a few months.
As the months dragged on, they grabbed the reins of remote work and moved south for “winter in the Florida sun.” They first landed in Naples, with Cristina taking a remote job with a software company and J.J. joining Comvest, a New York-based hedge fund whose founder lived in Palm Beach County. Now parents to their first child, George, the family crossed the state and moved to Palm Beach Gardens, where they were surrounded by other families.
The young family has become members of the Cox Science Center and Palm Beach Zoo, spend evenings looking
for seashells at Loggerhead Marinelife Center—“12 months of the year,” J.J. enthused—and recently enjoyed a Palm Beach Cardinals baseball game less than 10 minutes from their house.
What really convinced them was a roundtable arranged by the Business Development Board of Palm Beach County with heads of area public, private and parochial schools. “That was the moment it felt like home. We were blown away by the opportunity to sit around a table with such inspiring, committed and passionate educators,” said the couple, who are expecting their second son later this year. “Cristina and I both believe very strongly that the main reason we work as hard as we do is to afford our kids even more opportunities than we had. That meeting gave us confidence that we’re going to be able to deliver on that.”
Wellington’s Next Step as the Equestrian Lifestyle Capital
Already known as the equestrian capital of the world, plans in development will further establish Wellington as a premier destination for luxury living for horse sports enthusiasts.
The concept from Wellington Lifestyle Partners (WLP) will transform several parcels of land into new equestrian showgrounds, a new private golf club with luxury homes, and a small retail development. “The plans would boost the horse sports and further cement Wellington—and beyond—as an equestrian destination,” said Douglas McMahon, Wellington Lifestyle Partners’ managing partner and CEO.
“Wellington is known as the winter equestrian capital of the world, but it seemed there was an opportunity to deliver new housing and lifestyle amenities to elevate it as a luxury lifestyle destination,” McMahon said. “We wanted to enhance the premier horse sport community.”
The centerpiece to the 400-acre development will be The Wellington Equestrian & Golf Club. The private residential club community will offer luxury real estate and modern amenities including a refurbished, existing Pete Dye 18-hole championship golf course, a new main clubhouse, pool complex, racquet center, modern fitness and wellness facilities, and numerous lakes and walking trails.
When completed, the club community will feature 250 residences ranging from large four-acre farms and estate homes to townhomes and luxury condominiums.
An 18-acre marketplace will feature a walkable main street with Class A office space, shops and a proposed boutique hotel. Traffic and infrastructure improvements, a new park, and a new showground for hunters, jumpers and dressage will round out the amenities. New residences will be ready around 2027.
Such innovative projects are familiar ground for the development team. Tavistock Group and NEXUS Luxury Collection have developed such properties as Lake Nona, a 17square-mile, master-designed community in Orlando. Its Sunbridge community development, themed “welcome to the naturehood,” brings a variety of uses to life. Waterfront communities include the luxury resort community of Albany
in The Bahamas and Pier Sixty-Six, the iconic hotel and yachting marina on Fort Lauderdale’s Intracoastal Waterway.
Several development applications have been under review by the village, with other concepts proposed on village-owned land, including the possible redevelopment at the Mall at Wellington Green, said Mayor Michael J. Napoleone.
“Striking the proper balance between accommodating population growth and preserving the unique character of our community is essential to ensure a sustainable and vibrant future for all,” he said.
Improving and extending the area’s facilities will further grow the capability to host the most elite international equestrian events in the world, said Michael Stone, President of Wellington International, which operates the largest and longest-running horse show in North America for show jumping, hunters and dressage. The company contributes more than $352 million to the Palm Beach County economy.
“With enhanced hospitality options for visitors and sponsors, the many new companies coming to ‘Wall Street South’ will have the opportunity to host their clients at our world-class event,” Stone said. “Residents of Palm Beach County will also benefit from the improved facilities and be able to comfortably enjoy the longer season at the showgrounds.”
With 27,000 acres, 65,000 residents, hundreds of farms and almost 60 polo fields—and 15,000 horses here during the winter season—Wellington stands to benefit from the investment. The infusion of new showgrounds, premier hospitality, and higher event prize money will raise Wellington’s stature in the horse sports arena—and on the global stage.
“It’s all about being at the center of everything. We deliver an unmatched lifestyle that’s close to beaches and cultural assets but a world away from the region’s intensity and density,” McMahon said. “Our community will be an engine to keep introducing people to the sport.”
Development and Transformation
The Village of Wellington is a beautiful community, and we’re hopeful that our investment will only add to its beauty and vitality.”

ROSE FRIEDMAN
Suncoast Community High School Residence: West Palm Beach College I’ll be attending: Harvard College, majoring in computer science
Rose has been a student of Palm Beach County District schools since she was in kindergarten. In the fall, she’ll be a Harvard freshman majoring in computer science. In between, Rose excelled. She earned recognition as an AP Scholar with Distinction, held a 5.4 weighted GPA, and was ranked in the top 10 in her class. She was president of the Jewish Student Union and the nonprofit South Florida Tech for Seniors, while competing as a weightlifter and a four-year varsity swimmer. It was participation in two of the District’s celebrated Choice & Career programs that set her on her future path. Why computer science? She was introduced to coding in ninth grade—and didn’t look back.
OWEN HAVENS
Park Vista Community High School Residence: Lake Worth Beach Career path: Automotive service technician
Owen’s time in Palm Beach County schools steered him to his automotive career.

He soon will be attending the Universal Technical Institute on scholarship, on the path to becoming a skilled automotive mechanic. He’ll emerge debt-free and with certifications and experience that even some adult peers don’t have. The Academy “made me want to come to school every single day and be excited to learn more about what truly interests me—and is what I want to do for work.”
