the Keynote Speaker for 2018
Susan Foster
Susan Foster has a BS in Nursing from the University of Nebraska and a MA in Health Education from San Jose State. She has 30 years of experience in the pharmaceutical industry. Her background includes clinical research, instructional design and development, management of sales training, and senior marketing management. Since being diagnosed with Parkinson’s in February of 2007, she has started a woman’s support group in the San Francisco Bay Area, become a Research Advocate for the Parkinson’s Foundation (PF) and served on the national steering committee for the Women and Parkinson’s Initiative for the PF. She currently serves on the Board of Directors for the Parkinson’s Institute (PI) in Sunnyvale, California. Shortly after diagnosis, Susan completed the BIG program with the physical therapist at the PI who also told her about the first PWR! Retreat that was held in 2011. Since then, she and her husband Bill have attended every PWR! Retreat and look forward to attending the 2018 retreat in Scottsdale, Arizona.
