Hector is a 1997 graduate of Central Catholic High School. Syracuse University came next. While at SU, Hector not only got to cover Orange football, basketball and lacrosse, but also got the chance to study abroad in Spain – one of the best experiences of his life. He earned a dual degree in Broadcast Journalism and Speech Communication in 2001.

The Sports Director position at KLST in San Angelo, TX followed before he moved across the state to the Tyler CBS Affiliate. While there, Hector realized he wanted to come back home to get involved in the community. You can catch Hector on Maximum Sports, where his goal is to tell the stories that make San Antonio the great sports town it is. Since joining KABB in 2005, he has covered several NFL and NBA playoff runs, including co-anchoring the live broadcast of the Spurs team arrival following their championship in 2007 and in 2008 he was honored by the Houston Press Club and the Lone Star Awards for Best Television Sports Feature.

An only child, Hector is very close to his parents. They are his heroes. He loves spending time with his entire family and friends. Away from work, Hector is on the Board of Directors for AVANCE, a non-profit organization for at-risk parents, and on the Nursing Advisory Council for the UT Health Science Center. Among other things, he also teaches Catechism class at his parish, St. Timothy, and volunteers as a mentor through the Communities In Schools Program. Hector loves meeting people; so when you see him around, please say hi.
