Hannah was urged by her parents to focus on her education from a very early age and was thus one of the best students at both her elementary school and then the Melbourne Girls Grammar Public School, where she was interested in various things including writing books, acting in movies and being a member of an orchestra. Upon matriculating in 2006, she enrolled at the University of Melbourne from which she graduated with a Bachelor of Laws degree in 2010, but also obtained a Bachelor of Commerce degree in the same year.
