Hale was reportedly a graphic designer. Her “about me” read the following:

Hello, my name is Audrey Hale. I am a freelance Illustrator and Graphic Designer who creates logos for businesses. I primarily work with clients that desire a brand personality. I provide illustrations and designs that will help tell a company’s story. My illustrations usually bring a whimsical and light-hearted feel.
Aside from art, I enjoy binging on video games, watching movies, and playing sports. There is a child-like part about me that loves to go run to the playground. Animals are my second passion, so I also enjoy spending time with my two cats. You can follow me on Instagram @creative.aiden
Fox’s Karol Markowicz tweeted, “The Nashville shooter’s name is Audrey Hale. Authorities believe she previously attended the school.”
