Mucho antes de trabajar en el ámbito sin fines de lucro, Hannah se tomó un año sabático antes de la universidad y pasó un tiempo en México haciendo trabajo humanitario. Durante este tiempo, se enamoró de la cultura española y latinx. Al regresar de México, Hannah comenzó a obtener títulos universitarios en Justicia Social y Lengua y Literatura Españolas. A través de estos estudios, se enteró de las injusticias sistémicas que afectan de manera desproporcionada a la comunidad inmigrante en los Estados Unidos, lo que finalmente la condujo a su carrera en este campo.
Mientras estaba en la universidad, Hannah continuó buscando oportunidades para sumergirse en las comunidades latinas y de habla hispana. Hannah pasó un mes estudiando español en Buenos Aires, Argentina y, después de graduarse, pasó un año viviendo y trabajando en Andalucía, España.
La esperanza de Hannah para el futuro de Casa de Paz es continuar brindando servicios excepcionales a mujeres y niños necesitados, fortalecer las alianzas con otras organizaciones y hacer crecer la base de voluntarios.
