Early Life:
Hannah grew up in Colorado Springs, CO in a working class family. Her father worked as an air force pilot at the Air Force Academy, teaching new recruits the latest military strategies, yet they still managed to have dinner together every night. Therefore, Hannah comes from a background of strong family values. Her family didn’t have ample monetary resources, but her parents instilled in her a solid sense of morality, hard work, and frugality to create a successful life. Now her father, having retired from the military, works deworming orphans in Somalia. This has shown Hannah directly the horrid effects of war and the result of a violent and ineffective government.
