Prominent Southwest Florida entrepreneur Michael Wynn, president of Sunshine Ace Hardware, has been named chair of the Florida Gulf Coast University’s Board of Trustees.  

Wynn replaces Blake Gable, CEO of Barron Collier Cos., in the chair role. Gable was chair of the board for six years, according to a statement. 

Wynn now leads a 13-member board that serves as the governing body for the school in Fort Myers. The board, the release states, holds the university president responsible for the college’s operations and management, performance, fiscal accountability and compliance with federal and state laws and regulations, including those set by the Florida Board of Governors. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis appointed Wynn to the Board of Trustees in March 2022.
