Entrepreneurship is in Suzi’s DNA. As Development Guild DDI Co-Founder and its former Chief Executive Officer, Suzi has been a long-term architect behind our vision, strategy, and national growth. Since 2017 she has also collaborated closely with Matthew Weber, Development Guild’s current CEO and Manager of DevGuild, investing in the firm’s AI software development.
Her interest in organizational management reaches back to her childhood days where she could be found performing diverse tasks ranging from pipetting to payroll in her parent’s water treatment firm, Heller Labs.
While earning her MBA from Simmons School of Management, Suzi began her consulting work with a focus on financial planning and analysis. She has applied her organizational development perspective and training to the creation of our executive search and planning services. A trusted advisor to leaders, she has successfully completed over 100 senior-level executive searches for clients across nonprofit sectors, including education, health and sciences, human service, and social justice.
The pursuit of excellence for our clients and expanding opportunities for our staff remains as motivating for Suzi today as when Development Guild DDI first opened its doors.
In her free time Suzi enjoys her family, reading, walking with friends, dabbling in gardening, and planning her next travel adventure – her most recent one taking her to Cape Town South Africa.
