As the Director of Marketing, Susan develops and implements marketing policies and sets firm-wide marketing strategies, including internal and external communications, public relations, branding, and thought leadership.

Since joining GHT in 2016, she has helped cement the firm’s position as one of the largest locally-owned engineering firms in the region. Through Susan’s unparalleled commitment to GHT’s core values, she champions the firm culture and influences policies in Production, Administration, and Human Resources.

Working with the Board of Directors, Susan organizes, plans, and manages the firm’s sales efforts in new and existing markets. Susan represents the firm to clients, peer organizations, and colleagues through her involvement in SMPS DC; her involvement with the U.S. Green Building Council National Capital Region (NCR) chapter; and her leadership in the Zweig Group’s ElevateHer program, where she served as a Cohort in the inaugural class of 2020, again in 2021, and returned as a Mentor in 2022. When she is not leading corporate trainings or hosting client workshops, Susan enjoys spending time with her family and reading.

For us, engineering is more than a career – it’s a calling.

At GHT, our team’s passion for their craft results in groundbreaking achievements and unmatched quality in every project we undertake.
