Angel Edgardo "Gary" Rodríguez Miranda (born January 9, 1977) is a Puerto Rican politician. He has been a member of the Puerto Rico House of Representatives since 2008.

Early years and studies

Angel Edgardo Rodríguez was born on January 9, 1977 in Toa Alta to former mayor of Toa Alta Angel "Buzo" Rodríguez and Marisol Miranda.[1] He began his elementary studies at the Lutheran College in Bayamón, and continued at the American Military Academy in Guaynabo. During his time at school, Rodríguez excelled in baseball, competing in regional, state, and international tournaments. Rodríguez then moved to the United States and completed high school in Pennsylvania.

In 1994, Rodríguez enrolled at Drexel University in Philadelphia, where he obtained a Bachelor's degree in Business Management, with a major in International Business and Accounting. During his time in college, he was a member of the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers. In 1996, he was part of an internship with Jansen Pharmaceuticals, a division of Johnson & Johnson, working as an auditor and accountant in their factories in Puerto Rico and New Jersey. After six weeks, they awarded him the Johnson & Johnson Lightning Strike Award.

Rodríguez was admitted at Samuel Fels Center of Government of the University of Pennsylvania in 2000, where he received a Master's degree in Government Administration.

Professional career

In 1998, Rodríguez worked at the Puerto Rico Federal Affairs Administration in Philadelphia, first as an educational officer, and then as a Regional Deputy Director and Director. He also served as member of the Young Executive Committee in Philadelphia.

Political career

Rodríguez began his political career in the United States, when he served as part of the Board of Directors of an Inscription Program for Voters of the Delaware Valley, which includes the states of Delaware, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey. During that time, he also presided the Philadelphia Council of the League of United Latin American Citizens.

After moving back to Puerto Rico, Rodríguez decided to run for the Puerto Rico House of Representatives with the New Progressive Party (PNP), representing District 9 (Toa Alta and Bayamón). He was elected at the 2008 general election. He then became President of the Commission of Youth Affairs, as well as member of the Commissions of Family, Infrastructure, Transportation, Sports and Recreation, Natural Resources, and North Region.
