Hana Brannigan

Hana Brannigan is a fourth-year communication student at the University of California, Davis. She keeps very involved by being the Social Media Manager for The Body Project, a mental health club, at UC Davis; the Bike-A-Thon Chair for the Vietnamese Student Association; and the Editorial Director for Spoon University, a food publication. She thrives in meeting all sorts of unique people and learning their stories and being inspired by them. Hana wants to pursue a career in journalism so she can keep hearing people’s stories and helping people all around the world. She is hoping that could be through writing for a health magazine or having her own TV segment so she can make a large-scale impact and raise awareness around mental health and well-being.
