Susan grew up in the quiet suburbia of North Delta before moving Yaletown after years of commuting to Vancouver while studying for her Bachelor of Commerce in Marketing at UBC. She knew city living was meant for her the moment she experienced the dynamic buzz of living Downtown.

Her first taste of Real Estate which has also been the driving force behind her career, was helping out with the launch of the Yaletown Park development in 2004. The excitement and anticipation of helping a client find the perfect home even in such a frenzied environment left Susan wanting more. Since then, Susan has worked in the Rennie Marketing Systems head office through many of the different departments to gain a full spectrum of knowledge to support her development of unique marketing strategies for each individual client. Susan decided to become a full time licensed Realtor in 2006 because of the desire to be on the front line and interact with clients directly. Since joining the sales force, Susan has learned the insides and out of strata development from the front line by selling various high profile developments in Vancouver such as Woodwards, Wall Centre False Creek, and Wall Central Central Park. Her devotion to the industry and her clients has led to a successful career milestones such as earning the Real Estate of Greater Vancouver’s Medallion Club status and Rennie & Associates Realty’s distinguished Rennie Leaders distinction.

Outside of real estate, Susan spends any free time exploring the endless selection of culinary gems throughout Vancouver when she’s not travelling to different corners of the world taking in what different cultures have to offer.
