Hannah Laughton

Hannah is originally from South Africa, where she graduated from Stellenbosch University with a degree in Chemical Engineering after completing her thesis in sustainability modeling. During her degree, she completed two short-term internships, gaining exposure in both a pharmaceutical manufacturing facility and in an oil analysis laboratory.

After graduating, Hannah decided to pursue a career in cosmetics, and so she bought a one way ticket to London - the hub of all things beauty-related. Soon after relocating, she was working in New Product Development, where she discovered that her favorite part of the job was conducting trend and market analyses and presenting these findings to the team. It was around the same time that she discovered The Data School at The Information Lab and Tableau – which seemed to perfectly merge her analytical skills and passion for creativity.

In her free time, Hannah enjoys dancing, hiking, traveling and socialising with friends and family.
