Susan began her DJ career in the fall of 1982. Leaving Cleveland in 1987, she moved to New York to further explore her artistic possibilities. Struggling through her first few years, passion and determination, eventually earned Susan the support, she need to showcase her talents.

By 1991 she was offered a summer residency at the Pavilion, Fire Island Pines, NY. The Pavilion was the perfect platform for her to develop her craft and style as a DJ. In time, she gained the respect and consideration of her audiences. She continues to capture new ears and influence others through the evolution of her music today.

For over a decade, Susan has spun at a variety of New York City venues including: Twilo, Roxy, Sound Factory Bar, Sound Factory, Limelight, Exit, SBNY, Octagon, Palladium, Discotheque and the eminent Saint at Large parties held annually at the Roseland Ballroom. Having spun in every major city in the United States and Canada, her global recognition has also taken her to clubs in Europe, Asia, Australia, and South America.

Finding new ways to evolve as an artist, Susan has broadened her creative palette with the latest remix and production technologies. Working on a Power Mac G5, she utilizes various audio hardware and editing software to refine her sets into a uniquely personal experience.

Years of experience have allowed Susan to have the creative freedom that she has always desired. Musical selections are chosen out of her own inner sense of experience and artistic integrity. The display of sophistication, the variety of moods and tones, that Susan is able to evoke during a single night's journey has made her, undeniably, one of the most consistent and talented DJ’s playing today.
