Susan J. Fox Founder & CFO
Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) French Language and Literature. Susan Fox grew up in North Conway, NH where she attended grades 1-9 where she learned to ski in the Hannes Schneider ski school at Cranmore. She spent her high school years in France which served as a launching pad for a life-long passion for travel. Susan has walked on all earth's continents. At the top of her list of "special places" are Antarctica, Iceland, Panama Canal, Russia, China, Latvia, safaris in Botswana, tiger reserves in India and Nepal. She taught French at St. Mary's College, a Christian Brothers' school in Moraga, CA for 6 years until Sputnik cancelled liberal arts programs nationwide. This event pushed her into a new career path as a Junior Advisor in a healthcare information technology company. After a decade of learning the trade in major companies, colleagues convinced her to start her own business, Fox Systems, Inc. At the end of 30 years, her company had helped all states except two plus the American Virgin Islands to design and implement Medicaid Management Information Systems, processing millions of medical claims per month. In 2010 Fox Systems merged with another company and quadrupled in size. This provided a springboard for Susan to retire in 2015 and return to her roots in North Conway. Not content with a life of leisure, Susan joined the Volunteer group at the New England Ski Museum where she continues to help develop educational programs.
