Celebrating Latinx Heritage Month with Armando Fox
CS Prof. and alumnus Armando Fox (Ph.D. ’98, advisor: Eric Brewer) is the subject of a profile celebrating Latinx Heritage Month in the EECS community. Fox is the child of Cuban refugees who taught him to “pave the road” for those who follow. He was born in New York City and raised in a bilingual and bicultural household where he was cared for by grandparents who did not speak English. Fox is known for his engagement with both campus student groups and national professional organizations to promote and support Latinxs in computing.
