Meet Our MESA Ambassador Bryan Hernandez
I’m a first-generation college student from a Hispanic household, and my experiences growing up have driven my passion for education and helping others. Leadership roles and internships have shaped my path, and I’m excited to be part of the MESA program, where I can support students facing similar challenges. Being part of the MESA program opens doors for opportunities which is something I highly appreciate. Fun fact: I’m an outdoor enthusiast and love hiking whenever I get the chance!
