Hannah Preble, Ryan Companies

 

A Minnesota native and graduate of the University of Minnesota, Hannah brings substantial experience— including a background in international project management and leadership development in Switzerland—to the position of Interior Designer. She enjoys combining strategic thinking with creativity, technical proficiency and her well-honed organizational skills. Her experience has been focused in both corporate and healthcare design, and one of her favorite aspects of being a designer is the problem solving and the analytical, puzzle-like process of reconfiguring elements in the search for optimal design solutions. Hannah cultivates a continual learning mindset, which extends to her hobbies and interests which include travel, cooking, reading, being active outdoors. Fun fact, she has traveled to over 25 countries.
