Susanna is an alumna of SYA Italy '07, Waynflete School and Connecticut College, where she double majored in International Relations and Italian. When she's not using the espresso maker she nicknamed Andromeda, Susanna can be found cooking, catching up on current events and listening to music - Italian or otherwise.  Being part of SYA in a new role is terrific and she looks forward to once again meeting new people and visiting new places through SYA.  Avanti!
