"I am Hannah Feldman. I was born and raised outside of Salina, Kansas. I graduated from Southeast of Saline High School. After having several inspiring teachers throughout my educational career, I knew I wanted to become a teacher. To pursue my goal, I attended Fort Hays State University. In May of 2022, I graduated summa cum laude with a bachelor’s degree in English Education. After having the opportunity to observe at Ellis during my education courses, I knew that Ellis was the place that I wanted to teach. I live in Hays with my fiancé and our recently adopted cat."
