Susan Roberts

After her first career as a bookkeeper for a variety of small businesses, Susan began taking classes at the Connecticut Institute of Art and Design.  It was supposed to be a two-year program, but Susan needed to make money to support her family, so she opened an antique store and interior design shop called the “Idea Factory” on Main Street in Old Saybrook.  Her business thrived, and Susan found herself doing interior design projects for residences, medical offices, hospitals and other businesses.
