I am happy to share with you that our interim Hennepin 4-H Extension Educator will be Hannah Christianson. She will be starting on Thurs. Jan. 6 (to overlap two days with Katherine) and will serve as interim through May 8.
Hannah came highly recommended from Ramsey 4-H where she has been leading 4-H programs. She is currently completing her Masters in Youth Development Leadership at the U of M, and has a BA in Global Studies and Spanish. She has deep youth development experience, having worked at a restorative justice program in Madison, WI and served as an Americorps for After School Success. She is committed to diversity and equity, and she has experience working with a wide range of types of diversity. She is very excited to bring all of that experience to this position with Hennepin 4-H, and is also eager to learn.
You can reach her at chri3615@umn.edu. Please help me welcome Hannah!
