About Susie
Susie is a dedicated executive assistant with over 25 years of experience in the software industry. Her career spans decades in California’s Bay Area, where she built a reputation for excellence and reliability.
Beyond her corporate achievements, Susie is a former NFL cheerleader for the Oakland Raiders (2011–2012) and the author of The Dream Lived, an award-winning memoir that celebrates determination, resilience, and the fulfillment of lifelong dreams.
In 2021, Susie faced a life-altering diagnosis: anal cancer caused by HPV. Now in remission, she is a passionate advocate for cancer awareness and HPV prevention, committed to educating others about the importance of the HPV vaccine. Her journey—from professional cheerleading to cancer survival—reflects a life of courage, perseverance, and purpose.
"I pushed, I conquered, I never gave up -
I reached my full potential,
I reached my dream."
