Performing 5 and 6 nights a week to countless thousands of people from all over the world, in major venues including Paris, New York New York, Harrah's, MGM Grand, Hard Rock Hotel & Casino, The Palazzo, Monte Carlo, and others - Susan's versatile voice, impressive skills as a mutli-instrumentalist, dynamic stage presence, and rare ability to make every person in the audience feel a part of the show, have made her a top artist in the greatest entertainment city in the world. Susan is also booked as a solo artist in various Caribbean venues, such as St. Maarten and Aruba. Susan discovered her passion for music when she was growing up in Magnet Cove, Arkansas, a typical southern small-town community on her parent's farm. As a child she took classical piano lessons and later began performing in churches, pageants and talent contests. After graduating from high school as Class President, Valedictorian, and 4-sport athlete, she attended the University of Central Arkansas where she was a member of the Honors College, the university jazz band, and was President of Alpha Sigma Tau Sorority-Upsilon Chapter. Susan competed in the 2001 Miss Arkansas Pageant as Miss University of Central Arkansas, and again the following year as Miss Saline River. After graduating with a degree in Pure Mathematics, Susan took a job as a Radio Frequency Engineer with Alltel Telecommunications, but soon made the daring decision to leave her "day job" in the corporate world and devote herself to a full-time career in music. After a few years of working her way up through local piano bars, shows in Branson, Missouri, and finally a lucrative house gig in Los Angeles, Susan made the move to Las Vegas where her "calculated risk" (as she calls it) paid off, and her dream of success in the entertainment industry became a reality. |
