Born in La Ceiba, Honduras, he migrated to New Orleans in the summer of 2002 with his mother.

He graduated from The NET: Central City in 2015 and has been a part of his alma mater's growth by currently serving on the Board of Directors for EQA Schools.

Julio hopes to bring equitable opportunities to the youth of the city of New Orleans by consistently engaging with community partners and engaging community members in public policy.
