Bio
James Aspin
Hannah joined the Griffith International M.A.T.E.S (Making Arrival and Transition Easy for Students) program in January 2012 in time for semester 1 and was a very dependable team member, especially during our busy International Student Orientation program. Hannah displayed excellent communication and interpersonal skills and a high degree of responsibility and cultural sensitivity in assisting students, staff and members of the Griffith community. She performs well under demanding situations through our busiest periods of student orientation, by providing effective enrolment support and and advice to our new international students. Hannah is a positive, responsible, pro-active, fun and hard-working person, and therefore someone you can trust and truly rely on to get things done and make people feel welcome. It has been a pleasure to work with Hannah and I am very happy to recommend her.

Hannah undertook and internship with Marine Queensland with a focus on how the Association might better use social media as a medium to engage with members and the community. Hannah delivered a high quality report that provided a wealth of information that the Association has been able to use within its plans and programs. In addition to providing great support to the Association through this project, we found Hannah to be a great person to work within in a busy team environment. We readily endorse her. Don Jones - CEO
