"Knowledge is important but imagination is invaluable."

---Einstein

"Susy is terrific! She has been telling stories for years at our store. She brings puppets, playfulness and a great way with connecting with kids."

---Roger Page, Island Books

"I love the way Susy gets right down in the midst of the children to tell her interactive stories."

---Judy Hobbs, Seattle parent

"Captivating an audience of 5 to 7-year-olds in a large room can be challenging, but Susy had the attention of every child as she and her puppets told multicultural stories in her entertaining and educational presentation."

---Cindy Weldon, Principal

Stories have traditionally given us knowledge of why things were the way they were. Today, stories continue to teach us, make us think, and most importantly, stretch our imagination.

An educator by training, and a storyteller by trade, I create stories to stir the imagination and heart of the listener. I seek to increase awareness and understanding through the sharing of stories from many countries.
