In 1994 Suzanne competed at the national level as one of the top 10 women in the Div II 55m hurdle championships in Indianapolis IN. After graduation Suzanne moved to Chicago to pursue her career as a Personal Trainer. For the last 12.5yrs she has expanded her career as a personal trainer from the gym into her own part time in-home personal training business called Body By Friday! You will find her spending many hours in both the city as well as the suburbs practicing & spreading her fitness knowledge.

Suzanne joined Bulldog Boot Camp Co. in the summer of 2005 as a bulldog trainee. After twenty-four weeks of being a camper, she graduated to working for Bulldog Boot Camp Co as a Drill Instructor. Since the fall of 2006 Suzanne took over as the full time drill instructor for the 6:30p M-W-Th Lincoln Park evening classes. In the summer of 2007 Suzanne stepped in to help the M-W-F 6a Lincoln Park morning classes as well.

Suzanne is very excited to be more actively involved in the decision making processes and aiding in the rapid growth as Bulldog Boot Camp Co. evolves from a solid program to a great one.

When Suzanne isn’t “barking” orders to both new and old campers or personal training clients, you will find her working out at the gym, running along the lake front or simply at home in Lakeview hanging with two very important males in her life…..her two 7lb Chihuahuas TJ & Hunter
