Professional Accomplishments
Currently, Susan is an independent Information Technology Consultant (with a focus on health care) and a Northern Virginia Realtor. Throughout her career, she has been recognized for superior performance and leadership, receiving awards from her employers and professional associations. She started her career as a reporter for a Milwaukee NBC television affiliate. While covering the news there, she met U.S. Senator Bill Proxmire, known for being a watchdog against government fraud and abuse. The Senator offered Susan a staff position in his Madison office, and this began her career in public service. She gained invaluable legislative experience and was later appointed as a chief aide for the Wisconsin Senate Energy and Environmental Joint Committee.

Several years after completing her MBA, Susan shifted her career focus from the public to the private sector and developed expertise in Information Technology. She swiftly advanced throughout her career and worked her way up the management chain—while juggling relocations dictated by Paul’s Army career.
