Haily Hernandez

Haily Hernandez originates from a vibrant multi-cultural city where she spent most of her time learning to navigate life as someone of mixed heritage. She took her experiences with her to the United States Air Force where she avidly pursued her professional interests in the field of cyber security as a Network Analyst. In her free time she volunteered as an Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Trainer for LivingWorks, the world's leading suicide prevention and intervention training company. After a decade of performing these critical duties, Haily left the Air Force to pursue her desire to learn more about the diverse collective of human experiences. She is now a student at the University of Texas at San Antonio where she focuses on her degree in Anthropological Studies with a goal to use every skill at her disposal to honor marginalized and underrepresented populations through respectful depictions in literary media.
