Michael Carbonara is a South Florida entrepreneur, husband, and father running for Congress in Florida’s 25th District. Raised in a working‐class, faith‐centered household in New York, he built companies that create jobs and solve real problems, from payments and banking to genetics and fertility care. He is also the founder of Ibanera, where he helped build regulated digital finance and crypto infrastructure focused on transparency, compliance, and financial inclusion. After moving to Florida in 2012, Carbonara and his wife, whose family fled Castro’s Cuba, put down roots and are raising two daughters.
