Sue wears multidimensional hats. She is an artist, a healer, and a teacher of health care professionals in the USA and abroad. Her resume also includes that she graduated from wilderness survival school at 15 to later become a park ranger at Bear Mountain State Park in New York and segued into working as a guide/counselor at an outdoor awareness camp in the Catskills. Oh, that was after she recorded educational records for ten years with Silver Burdett for the series Making Music Your Own for US public schools before attending Drew University.
After college, at age 20 she led teenagers from the lower-east side of Manhattan on canoe trips through the Adirondacks following the route made famous by Thoreau. After receiving her masters degree in trompe loeil painting she painted Resonance art mural commissions for private homes in New York and California and following the wildebeest migration each winter as she co-led adventure-awareness safaris to East Africa.
She founded Brickside Studio, an exhibit design and fabrication company. There her team recreated habitats (dioramas) for permanent exhibits in zoos and museums around the USA. Her work can be seen at the JungleWorld exhibit at the Bronx Zoo, the Oakland Museum, the Newark Museum, and the New York City Jewish Museum. In the movie industry she became a union scenic artist (Local 829) and had the pleasure of sharing her artistic as well as healing skills with many talented actors and crewmembers.
After following a higher directive she moved from the beach side movie-making town of Wilmington, North Carolina to a forest retreat in the Appalachian Mountains. There she began a fifteen-year experiment within nature. For seven years she worked fervently to preserve a pristine expanse of natural beauty along one of the oldest rivers in the world.
On a hundred acres of forest that had seen only two previous owners since the 1800s, with a small group of talented artisans, Sue fashioned her special hand-built home where she has spent the past years in co-creative alliance, utilizing the energetics of nature for mutual benefits.
She continues to write books and paint. Each year she exhibits her artwork in New York, Berlin, and Zurich. She fulfills commissions for her Resonance artwork that holds a vibration that enhances well-being. Sue also enjoys raising her beloved animals.
Time in the woods gave her practical understanding of the Universal Principles. The visitors, students and interns who have wandered to her estate from Holland, United States, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, and other parts of the globe have learned first hand that all things are interconnected and nothing goes unnoticed in the Universal Order of things.
When asked, Sue reflects that the time spent in devoted independent study of the language of energetics was invaluable training. Nature is always providing a leaping off place to pluck the multidimensional secrets that lie within reach.
Her depth and breadth of proficiency are formidable. Her style is witty, honest and exuberant. To know her is a treasure that sparkles in every moment. She walks her talk.ver menos
