About
Meet Hannah
Athlete, adventurer, entrepreneur, and speaker.
I’ve built a life around testing limits and sharing the lessons that come from them. From competing for the U.S. National Team to becoming the first American woman to row across the Arctic Ocean, my path has been defined by resilience, risk-taking, and the pursuit of what others say can’t be done.
Beyond competition, I’m a mother, entrepreneur, and speaker who brings the same grit and creativity into my work off the water. I’ve co-founded and sold startups, advised organizations and nonprofits, and raised funds for youth causes through adventure-driven campaigns.
At my core, I believe adventure and business are both platforms for change. Through bold challenges and honest storytelling, I invite others to reimagine what’s possible and to find strength in choosing the unconventional path.
“Rowing across the Arctic taught me resilience is not about being unbreakable. It’s about taking the next stroke when you are at your lowest.”
