Hannah Anderson
Despite being an active user of social media since the start, Hannah Anderson never actually thought that she’d work in a field related to it. She always wanted to be a teacher instead of going into the social media or business industry.
Hannah started her training to become a teacher but still had a passion for social media. She was secretly able to build a network of over 100,000 followers on Facebook and thought it was just a hobby.
By 2014, she had already hit 600,000 followers on her pages, which made her realise the power of social media for the first time in her life. This pushed her into a field related to social media.
Fast-forward to today, Hannah is now the co-founder of a company named Social Chain. Vogue has also featured her as one of the top 25 influential women of the United Kingdom.
