Susan (Sue) Marinello has led a life full of taking risks and going against the grain. She started photography at the age of 14 and derived a lot of love and value from it. She continued her photography into her collegiate career through attending live concerts and shooting for magazines. Fast forward, Sue took her photography skills on the road. With 2 young kids and recently after a divorce, Susan home-schooled her kids and took them with her on a three-month road trip to film the stories of others across the country with the goal of filming a documentary. This was also a journey of healing and perspective for her. She was able to see the world through the lens of her kids. Sue has used her art, in many forms and mediums, for healing and therapeutic purposes. She did a self-portrait gallery, loves taking portraits of others, and now loves to doodle to express what's weighing on her. Sue is a rockstar. She wears many hats, including photographer, producer, artist, creator, crisis hotline volunteer, mother, partner, and more. Check out the full interview for Sue’s journey and amazing life lessons.
