Testimonials
Erik Schön
Managing Director @ Erlang Solution AB
Susan’s deep, curiosity-driven reading of “The Art Of Change” and her insightful comments on style and interpretation have been highly valuable. It’s a joy to work with Susan and her expert advice made the text more beautiful. I wholeheartedly recommend Susan for reviewing and proofreading books and articles.

Sue has translated my novel “Havsträdgården” from Swedish to English and I was impressed with how she took on the project. Sue showed great respect for my work. As an author, I appreciated that she both kept to the text and was also very thorough in her research on particular subjects. Our many interesting and fruitful discussions showed how dedicated and creative she is. I was looking for a structured and yet sensitive and creative translator for my book, and Sue turned out to be exactly that.

I have engaged with Susan Cohen on report compilation and editing projects on topics related to pedagogy, and diversity, equity and inclusion in science and technology. Sue’s role in these efforts included: synthesis of themes drawn from disparate information, contribution to overall narrative and structure, and editing of text and style formatting. I continue to value her thoughtful reading and engagement with the intellectual content and mission of our shared work. Her role as an informed yet external reviewer and editor allowed for productive reflection and strengthened the overall projects.
