Suzanne grew up in Webster, NY. She is graduate of Our Lady of Mercy High School, Rochester, NY. She obtained a Bachelor of Science degree from GMI Engineering & Management Institute, Flint, MI. She earned a Master of Science degree from Kettering University, Flint, MI. Suzanne worked for General Motors/Delphi for twenty-two years. Suzanne began telling stories at a very early age and perfected her writing skills and sarcastic wit in high school and college. Friends and family encouraged her to write a book. She tackled that challenge while recovering from cancer several years ago. Thus far, she has two romantic suspense novels published, "Embracing Destiny" and "Challenging Destiny." The novels are a mixture of mystery, romance, and humor that create exciting adventures for the characters and readers alike.
