Suzanne worked for Ancestry for 12 years in record strategy, acquisition, and content digitization as well as community relations and conferences. She is employed at FamilySearch as a Senior Content Strategist with current responsibilities for the Pacific Area. In her more than 13 years at FamilySearch she has also worked in content strategy for the United States, Europe (yes, Italy!), and Latin America.

Suzanne has served as a board member for the Association of Professional Genealogists (APG), Utah Genealogical Association (UGA), and as a commissioner for the International Commission for the Accreditation of Professional Genealogists (ICAPGen). She was a lead researcher for NBC’s U.S. season 1 of Who Do You Think You Are? and is the author of Finding Your Italian Roots: A Beginner’s Guide.

When not traveling to archives–searching through old books for treasure–she resides in Utah with her husband and four children. In her “spare” time she can been spotted doing her own family history, reading a good book, watching a movie, gardening, driving kids to a variety of activities, or singing in the Grand Chorus of Utah Millennial Choirs and Orchestras.
