A graduate of the University of Arizona, Hernández had his first job after graduating as an intern in the office of congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords. Less than one week into that job, Giffords was injured in the 2011 Tucson shooting, at which Hernández was credited with saving her life. Later that year, he was elected to the board of the Sunnyside Unified School District, on which he served until running for the state legislature.
