Gov. Ron DeSantis has reappointed three members to the University of Central Florida Board of Trustees.
The Governor is picking Jeff Condello, Alex Martins and John Miklos to serve another term leading the Orlando public university, which has the largest enrollment in the state.
The most prominent of the three members is Martins, the current UCF Board Chair. Martins works as the Orlando Magic’s Vice Chair after previously leading the team as the CEO. Martins has an MBA from UCF.
“Active in his community, he currently serves as the Chair of the Orlando Economic Partnership’s Governors Council and is a Managing Partner of the Osceola Magic, Orlando’s affiliate in the NBA G League,” DeSantis said in a press release.
Condello is the Chief Executive Officer and President at RANDALL, a construction company. DeSantis touted Condello as a member of the Project Opioid Board of Directors and The Faine House Board of Directors, as well as the 2019 winner of the Chief Executive of the Year Award from the Orlando Business Journal.
Miklos is the President and Senior Project Manager of Bio-Tech Consulting.
“He previously served as the Vice President and Senior Project Manager at Modica and Associates and President of Aquatic Management and Consulting,” DeSantis said in the press release. “Active in his community, Miklos previously served on the St. Johns River Water Management District and the Environmental Regulation Commission.”
A UCF graduate, Miklos has a bachelor’s degree in limnology, the study of freshwater aquatic systems.
The 13-member Board of Trustees leads the university, makes policy decisions and oversees the budget. Several major accomplishments are potentially ahead for UCF this year. UCF is building a $90 million Roth Tower at FBC Mortgage Stadium and is seeking to be officially named a preeminent school.
The appointments are subject to Senate confirmation. The Legislature reconvenes for the 60-day Regular Session starting Tuesday.
