Here we shine a light on one of our long-time members, Sue Vernes. Sue served on our Committee as President some years ago and brought to it a vitality and drive for change. Her life journey took her on some tangents but she felt grounded as “…EWHA assisted so many of us women to collaborate, share knowledge and experiences and support each other as we found a place in this industry”.
