Suzanne joined Hausmann-Johnson Insurance in 2013, as an Administrative Associate and was promoted to Office Manager after a year. As the Office Manager, she does a little bit of everything around the office, but her true passion is leadership – from enhancing her own skills to teaching others, she finds the journey to becoming an excellent leader immensely gratifying. Suzanne is inspired to come to work each day because she truly believes in the services HJI provides. She feels a strong sense of ownership in and commitment to HJI’s success because that success comes from protecting and supporting HJI’s clients and the community.
Suzanne holds a bachelor degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in English and Gender & Women’s Studies and a master’s degree from DePaul University in English Language & Literature. Suzanne enjoys going to the farmer’s market on Saturday mornings and taking in the spring & summer sun at the Memorial Union Terrace and the Henry Vilas Zoo. She’s taken up running in the past couple years and just completed her 2nd Crazylegs 8k race. In the winter months, you’ll find her reading under a pile of blankets or watching nature documentaries with her husband.
