Sue earned a BS and MS in Physics from the University of Cincinnati and Ph. D in Education from the University of South Carolina. She spent most of her professional life in Columbia, South Carolina at Midlands Technical and Community College as a faulty member and department head.

In earlier years Sue was an active member in Alpha Gamma Delta, Columbia Chapter of Daughters of the American Revolution, American Educational Research Association and St. Joseph’s Catholic Church.
