He has experience as a news media reporter and editor, and communications and policy staffer at the state and local level. As staff for former state Sen. Jose Rodriguez, he worked on legislation and messaging on a variety of issues, particularly education, healthcare, immigration, and budget. As staff for El Paso County Commissioner David Stout, he worked on county budget, planning, food security and health and environment among other issue areas. Prior to his work as staff for elected officials Sito was a reporter, writer, and editor in a variety of media, from print (daily newspapers, weeklies, and other periodicals) to broadcast (television news) to electronic, primarily in El Paso and Las Vegas, Nev.
