It is her mission to inspire those around her to see beyond limits and embrace their greater purpose.

She offers career advice, talks about her employment and incredible colleagues at the Fairmont Hampton Inn as an award-winning Breakfast Hostess, describes her journey building Sunshine Suzy, places great importance on community support, explains the impact she has made by sharing her many talents and abilities, and then challenges the audience to think differently and believe in themselves like never before.
