In this third installment of our #WomensHistoryMonth series #MujeresLead, we hear from Kristie Hernandez, who just returned home to East LA after two years in the Obama Administration. Ms.Hernandez has over a decade of experience in government affairs, most recently as an appointee of President Obama where she spent time in the Department of Defense and later as Deputy Director of Congressional Relations at the Peace Corps. What makes this interview so special is getting to hear from Kristie's mother, Rita Hernandez, who celebrates the great accomplishments of her daughter who was able to "volar!"
