Hannah Ediss was born in Carson City, Nevada. She spent the first portion of her adult life in the Bay Area working as an Accountant for an engineering firm. Though this career path was one that was lucrative and challenged her mentally, it wasn’t one that Hannah felt would satisfy her in the long run.

“I decided to go back to school to really try to find a profession that would fulfill and challenge me the most. It didn’t take long for me to realize that teaching and working with children was the most exciting and rewarding path to take, and I’ve never looked back since.”

Hannah received her Bachelors in Science from the University of Nevada, Reno in Integrated Elementary Teaching with a focus on Early Childhood Education, along with a Minor in Human Development and Family Studies. She also spent four years as a case manager working in Applied Behavior Analysis implementing therapy sessions for children on the Autism Spectrum in Reno, NV.

“I believe that as a teacher, it is my responsibility to lead by example and continue upon my own knowledge and education, while inspiring students to find joy in learning, growing, and always fostering their sense of wonder. I look forward to utilizing my own experiences in my teaching, while continually growing and finding ways to best benefit my students in their learning.”
