Sue Dissinger


I am originally from...
	Buffalo, NY
My favorite thing to do for exercise is...
	road biking, running, going for a walk…pretty much anything outdoors!
I have been with the YMCA for...
	9 years
My schooling and certifications include...
	Bachelors Degree in Health Science with a concentration in Wellness Promotion. I have served as a Lifestyle Counselor in Nutrition and Stress Management and as a Certified Personal Trainer in the past.
What I find fascinating in my field is...
	I’ve always enjoyed dabbling in a little bit of everything. A lot of people have one specific area of focus that they pursue whether it be expertise specific and/or population specific. In my position I have the ability to lead and influence change through others. So I don’t necessarily have to be the expert in everything because I’m surrounded by so many dedicated YMCA staff that are experts in multiple fields that can have a positive impact on multiple populations. It’s such a team approach to improving the health of our community and that’s what I love.
For fun, I enjoy...
	Family time and friends! I have a large family and most still live in Buffalo. My brother and his family as well as my parents live in Charlotte with us. We love being together and watching our kids play. We also have a great group of friends that love to ride bikes and, as we like to call it, “play outdoors.”
