In 2006, she established i-tees. The basis of the site was to create a vehicle for self expression, posting “green” concepts as well as concepts on baseball, WMLB, bicycle touring and photographs along the way, and helping to protect the environment.
She has donated her design work to various organizations, including the Hoboken 9/11 Memorial Committee, Jubilee Center Hoboken (for Children), The Central Avenue Special Improvement District (NJ), Actors Shakespeare Company at New Jersey City University,(NJ, Board of Advisors) Hudson Theatre Ensemble (NJ), and Chameleon Theatre Company Ltd. (NYC, Board of Advisors).
In April 2009, she partnered with Mary Jo Rhodes, author of nature books, to create another company and blog, FROGS ARE GREEN, with which they hope to increase awareness about the massive worldwide amphibian decline (up to one-third of species are threatened with extinction). Because frogs are an indicator species of a healthy environment, they also hope to spread the message that healthy frogs mean a healthy planet for all.
Susan has received numerous awards from organizations and publications including the Art Directors Club of New York, Desi, Graphis, the Print Regional Design Annual, The Society of Illustrators, and Graphic Design USA. Her work is represented in the permanent collection of the Library of Congress.
