Sue is a pharmacy educator, leadership guide, and lifelong learner who believes clarity changes everything. After years of mentoring future pharmacists, shaping academic programs, and helping professionals navigate complexity and constant change, she learned firsthand how rare true pause—and clear thinking—had become.

In 2023, a playful goal to “become a coffee snob” sparked an unexpected transformation. What began as curiosity about roasting and flavor profiles became a deeply intentional daily ritual—one that mirrored the way Sue approaches leadership, growth, and life. Her preference for bold, grounding medium and dark roasts reflects the same depth and discernment she brings to her professional work.

Compass Grounds lives at the intersection of precision and pause, science and soul, momentum and mindfulness. It is Sue’s invitation for others to reset, refocus, and move forward with confidence—one intentional cup at a time.

Navigate with clarity, one cup at a time.
