Edana Corona Hernandez

Feminists for Justice Program Coordinator | ecoronahernandez@scu.edu

Hello! My name is Edana, and I am a third-year Biology major with minors in Chemistry, Public Health, and Gender and Sexualities. I am interested in the intersection of health, counseling, gender, and advocacy, which is why I am so excited to help raise awareness of feminist issues and highlight the incredible women and LGBTQ+ individuals in our community! A little bit about me: if you can’t find me in a lab, I’m probably in a reading nook trying to make my way through my never-ending TBR. I’m so excited to serve as this year’s FFJ Program Coordinator and contribute to the SCU community while collaborating with students and faculty as part of the wonderful SCCAP team!
