About Joshua

Joshua Hernandez received his BA in Journalism and Mass Communication (News-Editorial) from the University of Colorado-Boulder. He has spent more than a decade researching and writing Maven the Raven and the Search for the Last Imperial, including taking research trips to the rainforests of Alaska, Costa Rica, and Guatemala.

In 2019 Joshua converted a Ford Transit van into a mobile home and began travelling across the United States. He has since visited more than 40 states, hiked the high points of 36 states, and visited more state and national parks than he can count.

Joshua is also the co-founder of a volunteer-based education nonprofit organization called Impossible Possibilities that benefits students in the Dallas-Fort Worth area by way of college scholarships and literacy programs, one of which is a reading-achievement program named “Maven’s Milestones.”
