Chris Latvala's favorite part of being Florida's 67th District Representative is talking to students. As Chairman of the Florida House Education Committee, he sees students as future leaders and deeply values their input. 

In his Know Your Electeds interview, Latvala shared he was inspired to run for office by his father, former Florida State Senator Jack Latvala. Latvala grew up working on his dad's campaigns and watching what it was like to serve in office. 

Latvala's first job was as a bat boy for the Jacksonville Suns baseball team. In four words, he describes his district as "diverse", "beautiful" and "the best".
