Hey there! My name is Andrea Hernandez and I'm a sophomore at Sam Houston State University. I'm currently working on my bachelor's in criminal justice with a minor in Victim Studies.

My love for Criminal Justice started when I was in eighth grade. I started learning about the law and different court cases and I remember thinking "How can someone do something so sick" So I started growing curious about whether there's anyone who can work alongside these criminals. As of right now, I am really into the idea of being a criminal psychologist or working alongside victims and helping them heal. My lifetime goal is to help as many people as I can.

I haven't really had the opportunity to learn much about repairs but I hope to learn more through the IFixit project! I got my first car at 16 and the only thing I have learned how to change is the cabin air filter but as the saying goes " If you can't fix it, you don't own it," so I hope I have future opportunities in fixing up parts in my car. However, I do have a little experience with easy tech fixes on cell phones.

I'm very excited about being able to create a guide to help people on how to repair something. Many people just want a simple step-by-step that's easy to follow and I want to contribute to that.
