Asgie Hernandez | O'Melveny & Myers, LLP | Austin, TX

Asgie joined the Austin Chapter less than a year ago and immediately offered to assist in any way she could. She joined the Education Committee and went above and beyond in her role as Vice Chair, helping to find a diverse mix of speakers who had never presented before as well as new ALA leaders to serve on panels. This provided moving and personal content to members. She recently held a committee meeting and now has all the education planned for the entire year of 2023.
