KEYNOTE SPEAKER

HANNAH VIRGINIA ROBINSON

From stepping onto Hollywood sets at age seven as young Cinderella in Warner Bros.’ A Cinderella Story to speaking on international business stages, my journey has always revolved around storytelling, strategy, and genuine connection.

With an MBA in International Management and experience across 45+ countries, I bring a unique blend of creative insight and strategic expertise to every audience. My talks are designed to inspire growth with purpose and to empower the next generation, especially young women, to build bold, values-led businesses.

I believe in turning creativity into strategy and fear into opportunity. As I once said in A Cinderella Story, "Never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game." Let’s inspire your audience to do the same.

  • "Hannah was a fantastic guest speaker for my senior communication capstone at the College of Charleston. She connected with the students immediately and really got where they were coming from. What I loved most was how she gave them advice they could actually use right away, not just vague career platitudes. She has this upbeat, yet, grounded way about her that really helped settle some of their pre-graduation nerves. And the way she helped them work through their own stories? It didn't feel forced or formulaic. She made it feel authentic and genuinely helped them see their own value. I'd absolutely have her back for future classes."

    — Dr. Merissa Ferrara, Professor of Communication & Media Studies, College of Charleston

  • Hannah was an engaging speaker that was able to connect with her entire audience—from students to alumni—at the College of Charleston. In fact, all the students swarmed her when the ceremony ended for the opportunity to get to talk more! Her tone was natural; it felt as though she was speaking from the heart instead of reading off a script or emulating other speakers' cadence. I couldn't have asked for a better speaker!

  • "Hannah was truly inspirational. She spoke from the heart and left a lasting impression on me, inspiring me to follow my career dreams. She truly cares about what she does and wants to help others achieve their goals."

    — Abby Salerno, Senior at the College of Charleston
