I have contemplated what I might say about myself for weeks, but the story doesn’t seem to get any better with time. I was born in Nampa, Idaho and was raised on a dairy farm. I am the third child in a family of seven children. I was blessed with four sisters and two brothers. I love being part of a huge family and my sisters are some of my closest friends.
I graduated from Boise State University with a degree in Health Science and then moved to the big city to start my first professional job at the University of Utah Hospital. A really cute guy followed me to the city and we were married a year later. I’m not quite sure how two farm kids ended up moving and staying in Salt Lake City.
I have worked in the healthcare field for over 20 years and currently am employed by Promise Healthcare. I work with physicians trying to teach them how to document correctly and read hundreds and hundreds of medical records. I truly enjoy my position, but it is only second to my main and preferred job of being a mother. I have 4 incredible children and can’t imagine what my life would be like without any of them. Nate just returned from serving a mission in the Philippines. Trevor is preparing to leave to serve in the Honolulu Hawaii mission in February. Weston is a sophomore at Murray High who loves to golf and fight with his sister (I’m not sure which one he enjoys more). And finally…we had a darling little girl Addie. She loves to sing, organize things, and most of all, shop with her mom. Our family life is very busy and we probably hold the Ward’s record for the most fractures in one family (children only)… 14!!! Never a dull moment at the Hanks’ house. I have been very blessed to have many of the sisters in the Relief Society as my dear friends. Many of you have served my family over the years. I truly feel loved in this ward.
