Name Rank and serial number to start
Ha, I get called a couple of names but Sue will do.

How did you find us and get into Swing Dancing
I was first introduced to swing dancing a couple of years ago when visiting some friends in Sydney.  That one lesson was so much fun that I was really hoping I’d find classes around Byron way.  Then Gee Gee told me the exciting news about Wednesday nights in Bangalow and I’ve been hooked ever since.

Tell us a bit about yourself, what you do/business/hobbies/etc?
I live on 2.5 acres near Mullumbimby and there is always something to do or fix on the ranch.  I love a bit of traveling, walking, hanging out with friends and dancing of cause!  I’ve usually had my own small business of one kind or another, at the moment I paint and sell souvenirs mostly wholesale throughout Australia.  My main goal in life; to enjoy it!

Tell us something random about you!
I once rode a bicycle 2000 miles around India.

If you were a swing move, what would it be?
A Slingshot Aerial.

How would you describe your style of dancing?
I’ll leave that for the Judges to decide.

What’s your Fav Movie?
Don’t really have a favourite movie, but a few good ones that come to mind, Amelie, Avatar, The curious case of Benjamin Button, Groundhog Day & The man who knew infinity.

What’s your fav swing tune?
Way too many good tunes to choose a favourite but I recon ‘Mari Nica swing – Eric Triton’ would be a good one to do the Charleston.

What is/are your fashion influences/eras/icons?
A bit funky casual, although I enjoy to look at all kind of fashions & styles from all walks of life.

Who would you nominate to be profiled next?
Roger Bowden

What’s your favourite quote on life?
Has to be what my mum said to me the day before she died…
Make the most of every day, you never know what’s around the corner.
