Maria Hernandez
The youngest of 4 children, Maria was born in El Salvador and came to the United States with a visa as an unaccompanied minor when she was just 8 years old … her 2 brothers following a couple of weeks later leaving their sister behind to finish Medical/nursing school.
Their parents had made the trip 2 years earlier to set up a home and get all the necessary paperwork ready for them to become naturalized citizens.
Maria studied Advertising Graphic Design while working a variety jobs before landing an assistant role with a leading Entertainment Studio here in LA, where she’s been for the past 20 years … and full disclosure – that’s where she and I first met.
Married, with two daughters of her own, she’s now taken on a new and challenging title - that of An Academic Teacher – something which Maria says, she never had any interest of becoming.
