As the great-grandson of the Mexican general who shot off Pancho Villa’s leg, Higinio (“H.O.”) embodies the spirit of a true revolutionary. His background is in starting up innovative companies from scratch, such as Flightlock — a travel safety company purchased by Control Risks, Finetooth—a contract management solution, now doing business as Mumboe, and most recently the Texas Tribune — a non-profit, nonpartisan public media organization. H.O. brings his infectious passion and uncanny ability to predict the future to Umbel as he leads the team on a daily basis with one eye focused on battle tactics, one eye focused on Umbel’s long-term vision and one eye focused on his iPhone. H.O. studied electrical and biomechanical engineering at the University of Texas at Austin.
