Episode #66: Hannah Taphorn - Sr. Scientist @ P&G, Economic Developer, Face Painter

Hannah Taphorn is a Sr. Scientist, Information Research and Analysis at the great consumer goods company, Procter & Gamble. Her assignments require her to find, evaluate and make sense of global data sources to deliver credible, evidence-based answers to the myriad questions that come her way.Hannah didn’t join P&G directly out of school. She took an unconventional path that perfectly prepared her for her role, spending seven years of increasing responsibility doing research and strategy in support of regional economic development with REDI Cincinnati. Dare I say she has played her own part in the recent renaissance of the city.We discuss Hannah’s journey, including all the family photo albums she’s graced (likely my own!) as a face painter at the Cincinnati Zoo, and the central role she played organizing the legendary Cincinnati Northside parade.
