About Patrilie:
Patrilie Hernandez (they/she) has over 16 years of experience as an educator, advocate, policy analyst, and community builder. This has deeply impacted their understanding of how the pursuit of health and well-being seamlessly intersects with the built environment, policies, and other social drivers. It wasn’t until they were diagnosed with an eating disorder in 2017 that they realized how much of their disordered behaviors and thoughts around food, health, and bodies infiltrated all aspects of their personal life and career. In 2018, Patrilie founded Embody Lib, a community platform and now consulting practice that specializes in transforming organizational culture, policies, practices, and programs that impact the many dimensions of well-being of those who have been historically excluded from decision-making power and resources. Drawing on their lived experience as a higher-weight, neuroatypical, multiracial, queer femme of the Puerto Rican diaspora, Patrilie challenges the status quo in the nonprofit and public sectors.In their spare time, Patrilie enjoys cooking for others, tending to their garden and house plants, and gazing at the moon. They also love spending time with their spouse and dog at their home in the District of Columbia. Visit their website at: https://www.embodylib.com
