Shanna Hafemann proves that "the only normal people you know are the ones you don't know very well".
Shanna was born in Des Moines, Iowa (Go Hawkeyes) and moved around a bit in her childhood before her family settled in Montana. And after a back and forth from homeschool to public school, she began taking college courses at Rocky Mountain College as a high schooler. From here, our interview dances around the timeline as Shanna shares what matters to her about her faith, her finished education, her mental health journey, and her passion for teaching music. We hope you enjoy getting to know Shanna as much as we did!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
