Trina Hernandez
I live in Austin, TX. with my husband, son, brother, three cats & books. I'm a legal assistant by day, and a blogger, social media manager by night. I am also a Co-director of Austin's #LATISM chapter and a contributor to LatinoMetro. I listen to lots of Death Cab for Cutie and She & Him, and drink enough coffee to light up your world. You can always find me on twitter (@atxtrina) or on my couch watching too much TV.
WARNING: I cannot function without coffee, use humor as a defense mechanism, and am a total ISFJ.
