Education
A former McKinsey & Company consultant and employee of Goldman Sachs, Hamilton is a graduate of Princeton University where she received a bachelor's degree in economics and finance. She also worked at GuideVine Technologies for over two years. "I studied economics in college because I knew I was good at it, and I wanted to be a 4.0 student, so I only took classes that were subjective where I could guarantee an 'A'. I do love economics, but I sort of had a midlife crisis, and decided to quit my job in New York and study acting. It was like a 'leap and net will appear' moment," Hamilton told WWD.
Personal life
Hamilton is married to French-American filmmaker Damien Chazelle. They announced their engagement in October 2017 and married on September 22, 2018, in Malibu, California. The two have a son who was born in November 2019. Their second child was born in December 2022.
In December 2022, the couple signed a first-look deal with Paramount Pictures.
