She studied acting in Nissan Nativ's acting studio.[8][11][12]

Music career

Hanna composes all of her songs.[9] She released her first video single, a song called "Aleph Bet", the name of the Hebrew alphabet, in February 2015.[7][1][13][14] It went viral on YouTube, with over million hits.[7][1] Hanna's second video single, which she came out with later in 2015, is "22 Letters."[15] It has been described as Kabbalistic rap, and is based on Sefer Yetzira (the Book of Formation, or Book of Creation).[15] Forbes listed her as one of Israel's 50 most influential women in 2015.[16][17] She promoted her debut album in 2017.[18]

Hanna sang in the Opening Ceremonies of the 2017 Maccabiah Games.[19]

gollark: I believe the issue is that you can't determine which of the reals are actually computable with a non-infinite algorithm.
gollark: Obviously "computable" exists elsewhere.
gollark: "Computable numbers", I mean.
gollark: Is "computable" a thing you made up? Because it sounds as if it might suffer similar issues to in our proof, which uses "finitely describable" similarly.
