"Susan is a marketing professional who understands product management, product marketing, and press/analyst communications both at the executive level and in the day-to-day trenches.

Having worked with her at Archive (Seagate), on the Orange County Marketing Committee of the American Electronics Association and as a consultant to my teams over the years, Susan has continued to demonstrate her ability to do what it takes to both develop and launch successful, category-leading products.

Almost as important as her creativity and tenacity, is her ability to get the job done on time and within budget. A breath of fresh air in the current market environment."

"As a creative and driven marketing professional, I have always been able to count on Susan to successfully launch new software and hardware products.

Having worked together at both Archive (Seagate) and Stac, she has the ability to turn unproven technologies into category leaders by creatively fine tuning the feature set, positioning, and messaging such that the “why to buy” is crystal clear to the consumer.

In addition, she possesses the creativity and people skills to successfully deal with the internal and external forces that can often either make or break a product."
