Suzanne has been part of the Inspire team since September 2023, and it's hard to imagine the place without her. Her background in management, administration, design, and event planning made this role a natural fit — but there's more to Suzanne than a resume.
Before joining the church staff, Suzanne had a career as a professional violinist. She performed in four symphonies, chamber groups, musicals, and string quartets — including a run in Branson, MO. She attended college on a music scholarship and won a concerto competition performing in a violin quartet. These days, you'll find her on Sunday mornings playing violin with the worship team, and occasionally singing or sitting in on keyboard.
Suzanne's husband Gaylan plays bass on the worship team, so this is very much a family affair. They have three adult children — Ashlynn, Jordan, and Brennan — and Suzanne will tell you that making music with friends, loving her Inspire Church family, and learning to play golf are three of her current favorite things.
