Meet Hubert Vo

Hubert Vo Texas Representative District 149 with Students

At 19, Hubert Vo escaped Vietnam with his family when the country fell to the communists in 1975. With little more than the clothes on their backs they arrived in the United States to start a new life. The Vo Family found its way to Houston, settling in Alief. Hubert entered the University of Houston, working nights at Hughes Tool to pay his way.

Soon after graduating with a Mechanical Engineering degree, Hubert was bitten by the entrepreneurial bug and started his own business. It grew into a successful computer distributorship and he later went on to diversify into a variety of different businesses.

Thankful for the opportunities his new country and its people provided him and his family, Hubert quickly became a U.S. citizen and felt a strong obligation to give back to the community through public service.

In 2004 Hubert was first elected to District 149 of the Texas House of Representatives. As a member of the Legislature, Representative Vo serves as Vice Chair of the Insurance Committee and is a member of the Pensions, Investments and Financial Services Committee. Throughout his service, Hubert has focused on public and higher education, accessible health care, public safety, and economic development.
