Biography
Beto focuses his practice on legislative matters at a state and federal level. His public policy efforts consist of serving as counsel to business interests affected by America’s immigration laws and corporate and academic clientele seeking resolution on statutory and regulatory issues.
During the 109th and 110th Congress, Beto served as general counsel to the senior United States Senator from Texas, the Honorable Kay Bailey Hutchison, advising her on ethics, legal affairs, and legislative matters. Prior to joining Senator Hutchison’s senior staff, Beto was employed by the Texas Tech University System as the Special Assistant to the Chancellor and Director of Federal Relations. In his capacity with Texas Tech, Beto coordinated federal research initiatives and served as a liaison with members of Congress, executive agencies, respective campus administrators, and the System's Board of Regents.
As a result of his work, Beto has been recognized as one of Five Outstanding Young Houstonians in 2009 and by Hispanic Business Magazine as one of the Top 100 most influential Hispanics in the United States.
