Hannah is originally from Fargo, ND, and made the move to Minneapolis partly in the hope of continuing to grow her coffee career there. As a member of the marketing team at Cafe Imports as a content specialist, she thinks it was well worth the move.
Growing up, she played ice hockey as a goalie and was initially hoping to play in college. This lost its appeal, and she started working as a barista right out of high school. At this point, she knew she wanted to work in coffee, but spent a few years in college changing majors, trying to figure out what else she might enjoy doing.
When she graduated from college, she was working at a newer cafe that had just opened its first brick-and-mortar location. There, she got to do a bit of everything from working behind bar to event planning, graphic design, social media, and more. After a few years, she decided it was time for something new and moved to Minneapolis to try out an office job. She spent a little time working in the dog apparel industry before finding her way back to coffee with Cafe Imports.
Aside from coffee, Hannah enjoys music, photography, and being outside as much as Minnesota allows. She loves to travel, often with a camera and always with a list of local roasters and cafes to try.
