make the world a brighter place for those who need it most . “ I am passionate about what we do because I get to see our mission in action every day . A wish renews hope by empowering a child to think about their future , and encourages their belief that the impossible , is possible ,” she shares with GB Magazine .
Suzanne is also a firm believer in the shared leadership model . “ If you surround yourself with knowledgeable and passionate people , there is no limit to what you can accomplish together ,” she added . Suzanne considers
herself more of a “ doer ” after holding so many roles within the organization over the past 20 years . “ As CEO , it is my responsibility to lean in wherever the team needs me , and recognize when they do not so I can stand back and support them ,” she says .
Outside of work , Suzanne prioritizes her self-care by practicing hot yoga , hiking , and skiing . She believes in the importance of taking care of oneself , especially in the high-stress and emotionally demanding nonprofit sector .
