CLASSMATE BIO

Sue Dietzen

June 2006:

Even though I have had an Appleton mailing address my entire life (Can it really be 48 years already!?), I travel quite a bit for work and leisure and often it seems I am "visiting" Appleton instead of living here!

I am employed with Kinetic Concepts, Inc., a global medical technology company specializing in wound care and therapeutic surfaces with Corporate office in San Antonio. I am enjoying my job as a Regional Manager of Patient Administration with 13 direct reports. My territory includes WI, IN, MN, MI and IL. Prior to KCI, I worked as a Respiratory Therapist for 15 years in health care settings.
My husband, Tom is a Claims Supervisor at Secura Insurance.

Together, Tom and I raised 2 sons (Eric & Luke) and 2 daughters (Laura & Melissa) and we have been “empty-nesters” for 6 years already! Eric (26) is a Journeyman Electrician in Madison. Luke (26) is a graduate of UW-Wisconsin and is the Assistant Superintendent at Bergamont Golf Course (designed by golf pro, Andy North) in Oregon, WI. Luke has a July '06 wedding in Madison. Laura is a Licensed Esthetician at Hotchandani Laser Aesthetic Center (Appleton/Green Bay). Laura is engaged with a May '07 wedding date in Appleton. Melissa is an Account Coordinator at Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

My husband, Tom and I love to vacation to destinations within the U.S., Mexico and Carribean. We're enjoying our family and a very nice life!
