Bookkeeper Susan Jeske spent her entire professional life in this role for various organizations until 2002, when she and her husband had a fantastic vacation in Italy, thanks to her skills as the family “research queen.” Her husband was so impressed with her planning that he encouraged her to put her research queen crown back on and and look into what it would take to become a travel agent. Fast forward to today, and you’ll find Sue running her own travel agency from their catamaran docked in Daytona Beach. It’s our good fortune that she still keeps her fingers in the bookkeeping business, which she plans to continue to do when she and her husband begin their new life sailing around the Caribbean at the end of 2022.
