Today we’d like to introduce you to Susan Simpson.
So, before we jump into specific questions about the business, why don’t you give us some details about you and your story.

Since moving to Houston after college in the Midwest, I continued taking art classes while being the owner of a healthcare consulting business.

We’re always bombarded by how great it is to pursue your passion, etc – but we’ve spoken with enough people to know that it’s not always easy. Overall, would you say things have been easy for you?
