Corcoran Partners is adding another veteran of House leadership to its lobbying roster.
Amelia Angleton has joined the firm after more than a decade in state government, most recently serving as Communications Director for House Speaker Daniel Perez. In that role, she oversaw the chamber’s communications strategy and advised Perez on legislative priorities, major policy issues and public messaging.
Before joining Perez’s team, Angleton served as deputy chief of staff for policy under former Speaker Paul Renner, helping develop legislative priorities and coordinate policy initiatives across House committees. She also held senior positions supporting three House Majority Leaders, including serving as staff director and deputy staff director of the House Majority Office.
“Amelia is exactly the kind of person we want on our team,” said Mike Corcoran, the firm’s founder and CEO. “She has spent her career working at the highest levels of the Florida House, earning the trust and respect of members and leadership along the way.”
Speaker-designate Sam Garrison also praised the hire, saying Angleton has earned a reputation for knowing the legislative process inside and out.
“She knows her stuff, and Corcoran Partners is lucky to have her,” Garrison said.
Rep. Demi Busatta added, “She’s someone you want in your corner, and I know she’ll bring that same commitment to the clients she represents.”
In her new role, Angleton will provide strategic counsel to clients navigating legislative and policy issues, drawing on experience spanning communications, policy development and House leadership.
“I’m excited to join a firm with Corcoran Partners’ reputation and record of success, and I look forward to putting my experience to work advocating for clients, advancing their priorities and achieving meaningful results,” Angleton said.
