Enrique M. (Rick) Suarez has been selected as Postmaster, Miami.  He had been serving as Officer-In-Charge in Miami since February 2013.

“Rick is an outstanding leader who is committed to providing the highest level of customer service,” said Jo Ann Feindt, Area Vice President, Southern Area Operations, in announcing the selection.
