Sue was born and educated in London. The ‘environment’ was unfortunately not incorporated into her education both at school and during her training to become an architect. She has lived and worked in London, Pakistan, Iraq and New Zealand for half her working life but she decided to stop flying and focus on learning a realistic understanding of our predicament as a species. Sue’s life now is centred on how we can make change happen.
