About Jessica Hernandez
Jess first started working for the City of El Paso over 10 years ago, but beginning her career with Parks and Recreation. But during the pandemic, many Parks and Recreation employees were able to shift over to work at the El Paso Animal Services shelter since recreational facilities were closed down. Jess began working with EPAS walking dogs, really filling the hole that volunteers left during that trying time. She started officially with the volunteer program in 2021 and became our Volunteer Coordinator in 2022.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
