For the past 17 years, Susan served as Facility Director of a progressive, multi-physician podiatry practice and surgical center in Michigan. She began her career in Connecticut working as a data processing manager and growing into the position of assistant treasurer for the 10-million-dollar corporation.

Susan graduated from Michigan State University with a BS in Engineering and attended Central Connecticut State University for three years taking graduate courses in management and finance.

Outside of work, Susan enjoys family time, gardening, knitting, reading, the outdoors, and learning new things.
