Hannah Chaddha: Race, Representation and Life in the Big Brother House

Join us for a discussion with UIC Alumna Hannah Chaddha, most notable for appearing on the historic 23rd season of Big Brother where she was also a member of the well-known "Cookout" alliance. She enjoys sharing facets of her identity as a young Black and South Asian woman, as well as sharing her journey in education, dance, fashion, beauty, and lifestyle--all while she navigates her post-show life as a Gen-Z'er.
