Susan Gorin

Board Secretary

"Films can teach, tell stories, and take us places we may not otherwise go.  Great filmmaking does this and much more; it can lead us to a better understanding of common issues and how to support young people through turbulent times.  Through Wingspan Productions, KT Curran will continue her great filmmaking thanks to her commitment to ask and then listen, creative talent, and hopeful spirit."

Susan has a great deal of Board experience and is currently the Interim CEO of Presidential Scholars Foundation and the past CEO of the National Association of School Psychologists. Susan is a Certified Association Executive (CAE), and her expertise is a tremendous asset for Wingspan's first year's initiative on mental health. She has a wealth of experience nationwide in the field of school psychology and directed the deployment of crisis teams after school shootings dating back to the horror of Columbine High School, including Sandy Hook Elementary School and, sadly, many others.

Susan is an icon within the National Association of School Psychologists (NASP) as well as within the larger field of association executives, and she leaves an indelible mark on the association,” says John Kelly, Past President of NASP. “She has guided NASP through 25 years of sustained growth and forward-thinking leadership that has positioned us as one of the most effective and highly regarded member service and advocacy organizations in the country.

Past President of NASP, Todd Savage reflects that “Susan is the consummate professional and association executive. She can make you feel like the only person in the world in a room of thousands. She set the bar high for herself, which makes everyone around her strive for something greater.”
