Hannah Martinez | hannahmartinez@arizona.edu
As an Animal Science major with a minor in plant sciences, Hannah loves understanding how everything is connected. Growing up, her passion for animals evolved alongside her, making her space into a little zoo" that houses bunnies, parakeets, cockatiels, chickens, and her pretty little dog, Pink. Away from textbooks and laboratories, she loves exploring, whether it's hiking through trails, biking, or kayaking. Hannah also like staying at homes, surrounded by her animals, indulging herself with movies, cooking, or baking.
