Susan believes that the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Whether you’re talking about the melding of an individual’s traits and talents or the teamwork that catapults groups to greater heights, Susan has an unending curiosity about how people’s brains work and what that means for the teams she leads or joins. Her unique capacity to see the entire forest and each leaf leads to the skillful analysis of the impact of small actions on the big picture. This vision illuminates the best path to success in managing proposals, launching implementation, and creating dynamic presentations. She is comfortable leading and amplifying others’ talents. Her background in the sciences, education, nonprofit management, government contracts, and workshop development has taught her to listen, observe, analyze, collaborate, adapt, and coach no matter the end goal. Outside of work Susan enjoys earning random certifications, kayaking, hiking, spending time with her family, and volunteering to help animals.
