Biography

      Although I am listed as "Linda" Williamson, I prefer my nickname, "Susie."   I have been happily married for 39 years and have four adult children; three sons and one daughter; two daughters-in-law, and some preschool aged grandchildren (So much fun)!  I enjoy movies, live theater, Disneyland, zip-lining, exploring, playing games, family and friends.  I do not currently have any hobbies because I'm working on my doctoral dissertation!!  I guess that means learning is my hobby and psychology is my passion!

  • Fourteen years as an adjunct professor for Merced College, Columbia College, Fresno City College and Modesto Junior College
