Born in San Francisco and brought up in Boston, Susan moved to Paris in 1990 to follow a childhood dream : to study and work in fashion. Since then she has lived in Milan, Casablanca, Paris, and Vancouver, working 27 years in the fashion industry with renowned brands such as Harper’s Bazaar, Vogue Italy, Stella McCartney, Neiman Marcus, Nordstrom and collaborating with celebrities such as Peter Lindbergh, Spike Lee and Dennis Hopper. Always believing in the power of intention and hard work, she has held many positions along the way : Art Director, Photographer Agent, On-Camera Talent, Producer, Consultant, Stylist. While continuing to work in fashion, she opened her private Spiritual Coaching and Reiki practice in 2011, first in Paris, then in Vancouver. On her return to Paris in 2017, she made the ultimate decision to retire from fashion. A year later Breathe in Paris® was born and she opened her private studio in Saint-Germain-des-Prés, and began teaching Breathwork classes in Paris.
