Hannah Pollock

I'm a twenty-something-year-old writer, photographer and editor. I currently work as a News and Public Relations Coordinator at Penn State World Campus.

I decided to pursue a life in journalism and storytelling after a gratifying internship at my local newspaper in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. I discovered my passion for telling the stories of those who surround me.

After graduating high school, I chose to attend Shippensburg University, where I found my home as an award-winning student-journalist at The Slate (SU student newspaper). I served in various roles including News Editor and Managing Editor before ending my story at The Slate as Editor-in-Chief. I loved being able to tell the stories of my campus community, as well as maintain a weekly column of my own thoughts.

I graduated cum laude in 2021 from Shippensburg University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communication/Journalism (Print and Online Media emphasis) and a minor in Political Science.

I am currently working toward my Master of Professional Studies in Strategic Communications at Penn State World Campus.

When I'm not writing or snapping photos, you can find me somewhere between University Park and Lancaster studying for my grad classes, supporting the Philadelphia Flyers, listening to Billy Joel songs or binge-watching sarcastic comedies.
