Hana was born and raised in Southern California. She moved to New York City to attend Columbia University and has lived there ever since. As an undergraduate at Columbia, Hana double-majored in sociology and dance. She graduated magna cum laude and Phi Beta Kappa, and her senior thesis earned departmental honors in sociology. She also holds a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree from Hunter College, and she practices as a physical therapist in outpatient orthopedics with a focus on treating performing artists.

Hana's interest in teaching began over a decade ago ago when she began working as an essay coach and a math tutor. In the years since, she has worked with hundreds of students in a variety of settings including one-on-one academic and test prep tutoring, writing labs, and group classes. Hana has extensive experience providing test preparation, academic support, and admissions coaching.

In her free time, Hana loves to dance and cook, often at the same time!
