As the Regional President of Wachovia Bank, Susanne oversees all wholesale banking operations in Greater Philadelphia, Southern New Jersey and Delaware. Susanne is responsible for leading Wachovia's sales, service and growth strategies as well as community involvement activities.

Named by NJBIZ as one of the Top 50 Women in Business, Susanne joined Wachovia in 1979 and has been in her current position since 1999. In addition to her responsibilities at Wachovia, Susanne shares her talents freely and generously with the community. She is currently the Chair of the College of New Jersey's Board of Trustees. Susanne also serves on the following boards: New Jersey State Chamber of Commerce, the New Brunswick Economic Development Council, and the Wachovia Regional Foundation (President).

Susanne and Wachovia have been generous supporters of the YWCA Trenton's after school programs for many years. Without Susanne's ongoing support of this crucial program, many children in Trenton may not have had a place to be after school hours.

Susanne has been honored by a number of organizations including the New Jersey Association of Women Business Owners, the College of New Jersey, Executive Women of New Jersey, Women's Fund of New Jersey, Girl Scouts of Delaware Raritan, and the YWCA Princeton.

The YWCA Trenton proudly honors Susanne in 2009.
