Hanna grew up a local here on the coast and loves being back!
At Half Moon Bay High, she discovered her love for soccer, a passion that continues to this day. After high school, Hanna earned her B.S. in Chemistry from UC Riverside and then served as Lab Director for eight years in AZ. While there, she spearheaded an inclusive LGBTQ+ sports league, fostering a vibrant and supportive community through camaraderie and competition.
After nearly a decade in the analytical lab industry, Hanna decided it was time for a change—one that allowed her to make a tangible, positive impact on people's lives. She returned to California to pursue her passion for exercise science and is currently working toward a doctorate in Physical Therapy at UCSF. Now, as part of the Empowered Fitness community, Hanna is dedicated to helping others achieve their goals through safe, effective programming and a focus on fun, progress, and empowerment! :-) She looks forward to having you in one of her classes!
