  • Summary

  • Carlos A. Martinez was born in El Paso, Texas to a public-school teacher and a government accountant. Carlos attended public schools through middle school until he was offered a full scholarship to attend Radford School. Carlos completed high school at Radford and graduated top of his class and upon graduating high school Carlos went on to attend St. Edward’s University where he received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science. During his time in Austin, he worked at the State Capitol gaining valuable legislative and policy experience. That work continued in El Paso after graduation, where he served as Field Representative for then State Representative Cesar Blanco assisting with policy work, constituent case work, and running the district office.

    Carlos made the jump from state government to local government and served as Policy Analyst for El Paso County Commissioner David Stout. He was charged with managing policy related to healthcare, immigration, the 2020 Census, along with constituent case work and managing the office. After a few years in local and state government the opportunity to utilize his uniquely developed skillset in the private sector came about and he joined the External and Legislative Affairs team at AT&T in 2021.

He serves as a member of the El Paso Hispanic Chamber Board of Directors, the Radford School Board of Directors, serves as liaison for AT&T on the Borderplex Alliance Board of Directors, and is a member of the El Paso Chamber’s Government Relations Committee.
