I work at the intersection of national security, advanced technology, media, and public trust. For two decades, I’ve helped leaders make sense of complexity, shape credible narratives, and move with clarity when the stakes are high.

I’ve built brands, shaped communications, and driven growth for Fortune 100 companies, early-stage startups, and global nonprofits, often in environments defined by scrutiny, speed, and consequence. Increasingly, my work focuses on national security innovation in aerospace, helping technical teams and senior leaders translate vision into credibility.

Earlier in my career, I spent more than a decade at CBS News as an award-winning on-air analyst and producer, contributing to “60 Minutes,” “CBS Evening News,” ‘Face the Nation,” and other network and streaming broadcasts across CBS News & Stations. Covering the White House, Congress, and U.S. elections shaped my perspective on accountability, narrative, and trust, while long-form reporting sharpened my read for clarity under pressure.

I’m also an author. My books, Los Republicanos and You've Come a Long Way, Maybe, explore power and political change in America. Along the way, I’ve been named one of the 100 Most Influential Hispanics by Hispanic Business and a Texas Powerbroker by the Houston Chronicle.

Before media, I worked inside government as Director of the White House Initiative on Hispanic Education, appointed by President George W. Bush, and as a legislative aide on the for a congressional member on the House Appropriations Committee. That experience grounded my understanding of how policy and budgets actually work.

I’m a sixth-generation Texan, which means I’m opinion, pragmatic, and allergic to nonsense. I hold a BA from The George Washington University and an MBA from Johns Hopkins Carey Business School, where I was named a Leadership Fellow. I also serve on the Board of Trustees of the Jamestown–Yorktown Foundation, appointed by former Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin.

Today, I continue building alongside people who care about the work, the mission, and America’s place in the world.
