Susi has a Bachelors in Business Administration from UMUC. Growing up, her family had an International Shipping company where Susi was the Import/Export Manager. The business was eventually sold and she moved to the outback in Australia with her husband who took a job there. Once the family moved back to Virginia, Susi took her first step into the nonprofit environment by volunteering at The Book Cellar in Warrenton. In her spare time, Susi enjoys golfing and scouring local antique shops with her girlfriends.
