She was a member of the USA Resident Triathlon Team in its second year, in 1997, when she turned pro and started racing on the International World Cup Triathlon circuit.
After the birth of her daughter Sydney in 2000, she set her sights on making the 2004 Olympic team.

She achieved her goal of making the 2004 Olympic Triathlon Team and represented her country proudly in Athens, Greece.
After earning her Olympic Bronze medal in Athens, Susan decided she wanted to use the knowledge she had gained throughout her racing career to teach other athletes how to reach their full potential.
She is now a high performance endurance coach and masters swim coach and works with triathletes of all abilities, disciplines and distances.
