About The Publisher: Susan Troy


I'm Susan, your local publisher and a fellow mom living in Thornton. I have two kiddos—a 13-year-old girl and a 9-year-old boy—who've both grown up in Thornton. We're a homeschooling family, so we're always out and about looking for great activities!

As a family, we love exploring our beautiful state. We hike, camp, ski—if it’s outdoors, we love it. My husband and I are also foodies and love great wine. We enjoy cooking yummy food and splurging on fabulous restaurants. I'm a huge theater fan and see as many shows every year as I can. When I get some downtime, I try to get into a good book. There’s nothing like disappearing into someone else’s world for a little bit.

We moved to Thornton in 2012 from downtown Chicago, where my husband and I lived for many years until we decided to move west.


I'm also a travel advisor creating vacations for busy moms who deserve to enjoy the vacation without all the work like the rest of the family! If you're planning a vacation to any of the following destinations, I'd LOVE to be your Travel Advisor and support you, too!

🏰 Disney Theme Parks
🎢 Universal Theme Parks
🏝️ Tropical All-inclusive vacations to the Caribbean and Mexico for adults and families
🍍 Hawaiian vacations
🛳️ Cruises
✈️ Travel across the U.S. and Europe
