After receiving the title "Hippie Hannah" from none other than the queen of America's Next Top Model, Tyra Banks, Hannah has embraced her nickname for what it represents. She uses it as an anthem to symbolize a new wave of New Age "hippies." She passionately promotes global awareness and sustainable lifestyle practices through food, fitness and the arts.

Since her appearance on ANTM in 2011, Hannah has worked with companies such as MAC Cosmetics, SwayChic, Pitaya, Nieman Marcus and many more. Hannah looks to emulate some of the same qualities that lie in the 3 women in entertainment that she is inspired by: Lucille Ball, Marilyn Monroe and Heidi Klum. "These women are influential in the entertainment world, not only for their talent as performers, but also as business savvy spokesmodels," states Hannah.
