Shirley Dunn Hanks

I have been in the hospitality industry for over 20 years. I started working at a hotel restaurant while in school at the University of Utah's hotel restaurant management program. I decided to focus my career on the luxury and ultra-luxury segment, working with brands like Auberge, Capella, and Rosewood. Today, I serve as a hospitality executive overseeing commercial strategies, sales, marketing, catering, and conference services, managing all revenue-driven departments for the hotel. I take pride in mentoring young women and building high-performance teams through collaborative leadership.
