Bio

Hanna and I met at Climate X, 2019 working on a seaweed business initiative. Since then, we have worked on other enviro/ social ventures including a circular design platform and a number of training presentations for Social Enterprise Auckland (Business Activism & Slicing Pie). Hanna is passionate about practical climate action and digs deep to work on tangible solutions. She is articulate and a multi-disciplinarian with a focus on manufacturing engineering. I would highly recommend Hanna and will continue to enjoy our cross-overs in an entrepreneurial setting.

It’s my great pleasure to recommend Hannah as a Product Design Engineer. She was the project lead of a recent project that we worked on together at oDocs Eye Care. I would really appreciate her technical prowess and was impressed with her professionalism. She is always committed to the task assigned and tries to bring in her creativity and problem-solving skills to mitigate the obstacles over the course of the project. All the best Hanna.
