Professional Hansen spent 2005 with the championship-winning Seattle Sounders of the USL First Division, but saw little playing time. In an attempt to re-ignite his career, Hansen joined the Southern California Seahorses of the USL Premier Development League in 2006, scoring 8 goals in 15 matches.On August 30, 2006, following the conclusion of the PDL season. Hansen was signed by the Los Angeles Galaxy, having appeared and scored a goal as a guest player for the Galaxy reserves in a game against the Colorado Rapids reserves earlier in the same month. Hansen was waived by the Galaxy during the 2007 pre-season, having never played a senior game for the team, and was subsequently signed by the California Victory. He was then transferred to Vancouver Whitecaps FC during the 2007 season. Hansen was waived by the Whitecaps in January 2008. He signed with the Puerto Rico Islanders in the USL First Division in early 2008 and has been a great offensive asset for the team ever since, helping the team reach the CONCACAF Champions League Semi-finals in 2008, USL First Division finals in 2009 and USSF D2 Championship in 2010. Hansen will continue to be key to our offense in the 2011 NASL Season.
