“Hi Susanne,

I just wanted to again express my deepest thanks for the experience, expertise, and guidance you have shared with me. It's easy to get caught up in the routine of daily life without taking a moment to reflect on the positive influence and impact we have on those around us. I’ve never really thought of work as a "career," I believe it's more important than that, it’s a question.., is it interesting, important, meaningful, and impactful? You most of all amongst your team but your team no less, are interesting! What you do is important! You are Changing the world around you in a meaningful and impactful way, my friend!

Thank you and your amazing team for making a difference! I’m overwhelmed and thankful for all that you do!
