[gap height=”25″]1) How did you get into the tanning industry?
[gap height=”15″]I was working for a company that was searching for a General Manager to run East Coast operations for a new product they would be importing from Germany – tanning beds! After several months of searching and dozens of interviews, we hadn’t found the ideal candidate. Then, the owner of the company asked, “Susan, why don’t you handle it?” And the rest is history!

2) What do you like most about your job?
[gap height=”15″]I’ve had the opportunity to travel the world to exotic destinations and meet hundreds of fascinating people with interesting stories about how they started their business with virtually nothing, and went on to achieve success. Today, I count many of those people as my good friends.

3) How do you spend your spare time?
[gap height=”15″]I truly enjoy gardening. My home in New Jersey has a large area for growing just about anything. However, most of that spare time is now being used to train and take care of Chanel – my Toy Poodle puppy who has become a member of the family.

4) Do you have a “pet peeve?”
[gap height=”15″]Something that truly causes me concern is the topic of “care for the elderly” in the U.S. When my parents’ health began to fail, and I was spending a lot of time with them in the hospitals, I witnessed first-hand the consequences that so many face due to the lack of quality, affordable care.

5) What’s your favorite food?
[gap height=”15″]Living in the NYC area, we have so many choices that it’s hard to pick just one. However, my preferences always lean toward Italian and French cuisine.

6) What’s your favorite TV show?
[gap height=”15″]I don’t watch much television – but I do enjoy Shark Tank. It’s great to see that the entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well in the U.S.A.!
[gap height=”25″]7) If we look at your “Bucket List,” what’s at the top?
[gap height=”15″]The answer to this goes back to my “Pet Peeve.” I plan to become an advocate for the elderly, as there are so many who are truly in need of financial, emotional and spiritual support.
