Hannah has a PhD, a Master's degree, and a Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and Film, as well as being a multi-award-winning Creative Writer. Hannah has designed as long as she's performed (which is a while, since she started on stage as a child actor in California at age four).

Hannah started styling events and displays when she was still in school, and has been doing so for the last twenty years. When Hannah became a mother, she also channelled her creativity into making memorable and beautiful events. Hannah wanted to share her love of design, drama, and young people, with the wider Wellington community.

Hannah is also a director, drama tutor, and teacher at Arts a Go Go: Performing Arts School for Kids, where she's worked for the last decade. Hannah began directing almost twenty years ago, and now works to inspire creativity and learning in young people aged from preschoolers right up to university students.
