Prior to assuming this role with HTTP, Mr. Llorenz served as Senior Policy Advisor to the National Hispanic Caucus of State Legislators, where he directed the development of the Broadband En Accion Taskforce - a cadre of Hispanic state legislators from across the country working to identify and promote policy solutions to close the digital divide and realize full broadband adoption for Latino communities.
