Hola! My name is Lucio and I recently made the switch from the newsroom to product and now work as a Senior Engineer at Vox Media.
Previously worked as a designer and web developer at the Washington Post, San Francisco Chronicle and Chicago Tribune's Spanish daily (Hoy Chicago).
During my time in San Francisco I helped instruct a class on editorial web design and development at the Graduate School of Journalism in UC Berkeley.
Outside of work, I was listed in Editor & Publisher’s 2019 “25 Under 35: The Future Generation of Newspaper Leaders” and Fullstack Academy's “15 Developers to Follow If You Want to Work in Media.” I cofounded Code Latino Chicago, a community empowering Latinos into web development, during my time in Chicago. Contributor to Next.js v9.4.3.
I'm also a Lifetime member of the National Association of Hispanic Journalists (NAHJ) and previously served on the local chapter boards in DC, Bay Area and Chicago.
