As the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of ROI Business Funding, Hannah is responsible for overseeing the overall strategic direction and operation of ROI Business Funding, working closely with the Executive Leadership to shape and support the execution for ROI’s objectives and providing portfolio advisory functions to guide strategic partnerships and investment decisions.  Ensuring the alignment of strategy, objectives, priorities and messaging across the enterprise, she plays a significant role in the company’s ability to differentiate itself and thrive in the competitive marketplace by enabling the company’s leaders to build enduring client relationships through innovative solutions and extraordinary personalized service. Hannah cares about her client’s success, partners closely with industry and community leaders,  and continues to foster many insider relationships with lenders and private investors, which allows ROI Business Funding to have unlimited access to capital for their clients.

Those who know her describe Hannah as energetic, innovative, focused and giving. Entrepreneurism, leadership, self-actualization, and volunteerism are her passions.

Because of her success in diverse fields of business, Hannah won several awards for entrepreneurship, including the Top One Coaching Entrepreneur of the Year Award.  A serial entrepreneur and a strong believer in giving back to the community and leaving a legacy, Hannah supports the Women Business Development Center (WBDC), Future Founders Foundation, Storytellers for Good, Alzheimer’s Association, USO and Children’s Memorial Hospital.
