Susan brings 25 years of deep expertise in wealth management, complex estate planning, and tax planning. Known for her approachable style and solution-oriented mindset, she excels at breaking down complex financial and legal matters into clear, actionable strategies that create meaningful results.
Susan advises clients through major life transitions—divorce, the death of a spouse, retirement, liquidity events, and career changes—offering calm, grounded guidance and highly personalized plans.
Her work is grounded not only in technical depth, but in a firm belief that thoughtful planning begins with understanding the person behind the balance sheet. Susan integrates a coaching-oriented approach into her advisory work, helping clients identify their goals, explore their values, and examine the beliefs about money that shape their decisions. She believes informed decisions happen when expertise and empathy work together, and that sound advice should empower, educate, and strengthen—not intimidate.
Before co-founding Sorelle Wealth Partners, Susan built a distinguished career as a trusted advisor to high-net-worth individuals, families, and private foundations. She practiced tax and estate planning law at an international law firm, became a partner at a national accounting firm, and most recently served as a shareholder at a highly-ranked Registered Investment Advisory firm.
Outside of her professional work, Susan’s greatest joy is her family. She is happily married to her husband, Scott, and is the mother of four children - including three in high school - which keeps life lively and interesting. At home, she’s surrounded by two dogs and a cat, loves gathering everyone around the table to try new recipes, and finds some of her happiest moments on the water, learning the ropes as a novice captain.
