Biographical History

Sergio L. De León was born in 1971 in Fort Worth, Texas, and attended Holy Family Catholic School as a child. The family moved to Burleson, Texas in 1979, and lived in the small town of Bigelow in Perry County, Arkansas from 1985 to 1991, where he graduated from East End High School, involving himself in Future Business Leaders of America, Young Democrats, and Future Farmers of America. He studied at the University of Central Arkansas, but left school to work on Bill Clinton's presidential campaign in Tarrant County. Returning to Fort Worth in 1992, De León earned his Associate of Applied Science degree from Tarrant County College's criminal justice program and earned his Bachelor of Science degree in political science from Texas Wesleyan University in 1998. At the time of his election to the office of County Constable for Precinct 5, he was the youngest elected official in Tarrant County and the first Mexican American to serve as Constable in his precinct. At the time of the interview, he was a member of the Texas Justice of the Peace and Constable Association, the National Association of Latino Elected and Appointed Officials (NALEO), and the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), and in 2009, he was a member of the board of Leadership Fort Worth (LFW).
