The Time of Day is Broken: A Pacific Crest Trail Story

I’m Hannah, and I decided to hike from Mexico to Canada on the Pacific Crest Trail in 2022. Backpacking gave me the time and space to think—for hours and days and months—about what I wanted for myself and who I wanted to be.

2024 Showreel

This is my 2024 showreel, a little sexy, a little saucy, a little goofy, and zero percent serious. I am a high skilled character aerialist specializing in aerial straps and chains for cabaret enthusiasts. 

About me.

Let's start at the beginning: I grew up on an organic family farm on the California coast. Waking up to milk goats in the morning, harvesting raspberries after school and working farmers market on weekends. Farm life distilled a deep love for nature, which over time has taken me backpacking in the wilderness of California, Alaska, Wyoming, and in 2022 on a five month thru hike of the Pacific Crest Trail. 

 

I've always been a mover: I was a ballerina as a child, then a modern dancer, until my mom convinced me to 'try aerial dance' from a flyer at a bagel shop. Game over, life passion unlocked. Pursing circus has led me to study in Australia and London where I graduated with a BA in Circus Arts. NOW, I am living in New York City, performing aerial straps, aerial chains, and bottle walking to cabaret enthusiasts around the city. 

 

I am also a person: craft nights with friends and a bowl of chilli is my definition of 'perfection', I have a colorful sock collection, Maggie Rogers is my favorite musician, I doodle and I enjoy animal facts. I am incorporating each hobby or art form into the others. Circus, dance, illustration, hiking and videography all meld together for an unique perspective and quality.

My Philosophy.

As an adventurer, I stay curious about the world around me. 

As a performer, I share the physicality of an emotion, and the joy of an experience. 

‍As an illustrator, I see the humor, inspiration, and ridiculousness of daily life. 


As a videographer, I am fascinated by the connections built through storytelling.

As a human, I am captivated by the juxtaposition of love and grief.
