CHARLOTTE — Brian Segovia has joined the Diocese of Charlotte’s Communications Office as the Hispanic Media Coordinator to help inform and engage with the diocese’s growing Hispanic Catholic community.
Segovia will produce and edit content in both Spanish and English for multiple communications channels including the Catholic News Herald’s award-winning print and digital platforms. He succeeds César Hurtado, who recently retired after 11 years in the role.
Segovia most recently worked as a multimedia journalist with Univision 40 North Carolina, where he produced television news for the Spanish-speaking population of the Raleigh metropolitan area. He previously interned at the Charlotte Business Journal and Fox Sports.
Born in Lexington, Segovia is the son of Argentinian immigrants and grew up in the Charlotte area.
He graduated from Charlotte Christian School and earned a bachelor’s degree in Journalism and International/Global Studies from Elon University.
“As our Hispanic Catholic community continues to grow across the diocese, it’s essential that our communications reflect, engage and serve these individuals and families,” said Liz Chandler, diocesan communications director.
“Brian’s passion for storytelling in both English and Spanish will help us deepen those connections and ensure that everyone feels informed, included and inspired in their faith.”
