¡Hola! My name is Mayra Hernandez, and this will be my second year as a bilingual speech-language pathologist at Blazier. I earned my bachelor’s degree from UT Austin in 2016 and my master’s degree from Texas Woman’s University in 2023. Originally from Houston, TX, but I was raised in Austin, TX. I’m engaged to my high school sweetheart and have two children. Our family also includes three fur babies: two dogs, Chewy and Oreo, and a cat named Skittles.
 

 

 

 

 

 

I want to make sure my students have exactly what they need to succeed, so I've created a project through DonorsChoose, the nonprofit classroom funding site for public school teachers.
Your support would mean so much to my students.

The best part of my job is teaching kids how to advocate for themselves and express their thoughts. I enjoy reading books, hiking, gardening, and painting pet portraits. I have two daughters (4 and 2 years old) and two dogs (Sasha and Olive).
