Traveler Bio

Nice to meet you all! My name is Hannah, and I'm from Tulsa, Oklahoma, but I go to school in Atlanta, Georgia at Emory University. I'm currently studying in Milan, Italy for the fall 2022 semester, and I'm very excited to be able to work with you all! One thing about me is that I'm a first-generation low-income student, which means that I was the first in my family to go to college with the help of my school. My school also helped me to study abroad. I'm very passionate about helping other students overcome educational obstacles in higher education institutions. I study Sociology, which is the study of how people and groups interact with society! In my free time, I like to read, go thrift shopping and hang out with my friends. In Milan, I spent a lot of time walking around and exploring the city. I saw amazing old architecture, ate delicious pasta and met great people, so I'm excited to meet you all, too!
