Hannah Westerman: Obstacles After Graduation

Obstacles after graduation? Hannah Westerman is the Founder of Avenue West. She started her company 9 years ago in a coffee shop in New Orleans with nothing but a laptop and the desire to create beautiful things for people and companies she believed in. She knows that entrepreneurship can be scary, but perseverance and belief in yourself can help overcome even the toughest moments. Today she has a team of talented creatives who she collaborates with for different projects. Hannah is a native Portlandian who through a series of serendipitous events landed in Philadelphia, which she now calls home. When she's not designing or drawing, she is riding her yellow bike around the city or seeing live music. In episode 559 of the Fraternity Foodie Podcast, we find out why Hannah chose Binghamton University, how college prepared her for a career in graphic design, how she overcame the obstacles after graduation, advice for college students who want to start their own business, how play in the workplace is helpful, what kinds of work she does with NFL stars, more about the Christmas album she helped to create with the Philadelphia Eagles, and tips for college students that want high quality images for their IG accounts.
