He was an assistant minority leader from 2007 to 2009.[6] His special legislative concerns include education, education reform, taxes, tax relief, business, improved business climate, family law, and agriculture.[1]

Hann is a business process consultant. He was previously the Director of Forecasting and Logistics for E.A. Sween Company, also known as Deli Express, in Eden Prairie.[7] He attended Lincoln High School in Bloomington, then served in the United States Army during the Vietnam War. He went on to Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, earning his B.A. in Religion, and took graduate studies in Theology at the University of Chicago.[1][7]
