Sue Huff – The Winners Circle, Naples Style

Pharrell Williams wrote a popular song named HAPPY which became a worldwide sensation. If anyone ever embodied the word Happy, it would be Sue Huff and it is contagious.

This Virginia native has the gift of gab and hospitality. She and her work are well known by the Naples community and she has collaborated professionally with many successful locals as well as business owners.

Sue’s career began in the newspaper industry and by the age of 30, she was the managing partner of a chain of commercial print shops in Cincinnati Ohio. After building a successful operation and selling her partnership, she accepted a senior management position with the City of Cincinnati before venturing to Naples to start her own consulting business.

Her education is in communications, marketing, graphic arts, with experience in broadcasting, photography and theatre! WHEW, this lady does it all, and may I say does it well. Sue has hosted several radio programs, and been an on-air personality for several local radio stations. When I say there is no shortage of personality, that is probably an over simplification.
