Jose Marquez believes in doing everything he can to help his community and he sees a true urgency in educating and pushing Latinos towards science and technology. That’s why he started Latinos in Information Sciences and Technology Association (LISTA). Watch to see how September 11 changed everything for him and how his journey began when he was born on an Army base.

Jose, when you have time, send me a message about the FCC Digital LIteracy Corp and how it will work in communities. Very nice piece.

Keep up the good work. Visit WWW.inroads. org for Paid internship opportunity for all diverse students in the major of engineering, computer science and many other majors. Let's continue the effort to support undeserved students opportunities in corporate America. Jose keep up the great work inspiring the Latino children to pursue careers in these sectors.

Thought you were going to interview Jose...would have rather seen him being interviewed than hear about the wonderful work he does. But big shout out to my friend Jose.
