Susan is an amazing leader in any organization she is apart of. She has an exceptional ability to simplify complexity, navigate ambiguity, and lead projects to success. In addition to her project management expertise, she also makes a wonderful partner to brainstorm and collaborate. Each conversation I have with her, I walk away with better ideas and clarity on next steps. I love working with her and any organization is lucky to have her.

Susan is an operational dynamo! Her ability to dig in and find the real issues, then lead her team to a strategic solution is second to none. She operates with kindness, integrity, and lightning-quick speed. A tremendous leader!
