Her personal journey as a third-degree black belt in tae kwon do and now a certified Gyrotonic® instructor uniquely positions her to write about fitness from the perspective of personal growth as well as from a scientific, how-to angle. She tackles the science side in Minnesota Medicine and some more nebulous combinations in Experience Life. As Health + Fitness columnist and blogger for METRO magazine and several other Tiger Oak Publications.
Susan has been writing on assignment for a wide range of publications for 20 years. Her work has appeared nationally in Better Homes + Gardens and Redbook, and widely in the Twin Cities area. Throughout her 20-year career as a freelance journalist, she has gracefully tackled subjects in the arts, medicine, parenting and psychology.
