Growing up in Monroeville, Alabama, Hanna hit the ground running full-force as a child with her role of Scout Finch in Monroeville's annual rendition of To Kill a Mockingbird for five consecutive years. While attending Auburn University, Hanna made the most of her academic career, immersing herself in theater, journalism, public administration and management. Outside of classes, Hanna worked as a PM Manager for Prevail Coffee Company in downtown Auburn, where her passion for craft coffee, community, and problem-solving was ignited.
After graduation, Hanna set her sights on Atlanta, Georgia where she secured a title within the Ford Fry Family as Front-of-House manager for establishments, including St. Cecilia and King+Duke. She later continued her growth within the industry as a Front-of-House Manager at Bacchanalia Atlanta and then returned home to Alabama, in hopes of planting roots and developing a deeper sense of intentional community through Prevail Coffee Company Montgomery as General Manager. Three years with Prevail Union acted as a catalyst for a multitude of life-changing relationships [where she met her now husband] and wonderful opportunities [to grow her wine education and visit countries like Guatemala].
Hanna is both proud and excited to grow in her newest role as Assistant General Manager of Ravello Ristorante, where she hopes to utilize her talents to bring a new level of warmth and intention to Montgomery's downtown dining experience. Outside of work, Hanna looks forward to adding stamps to her passport, continuing her wine education, and making time to better understand the needs of the community through her friendships.
