1110: Susan Abbott, Founder and CEO of Know My Menu

Susan Abbott is the CEO and Founder of Know My Menu. Know My Menu is a brand new tool developed by Susan with a "Mission: To provide an easy-to-use tool for restaurants to manage their menus while providing transparency to their patrons," and a "Vision: More people dining with confidence and ease knowing their menu choices, where the food comes from and ways their choices can support their lifestyle." Susan has worked in tech and IT since the 90's. She has done everything from technical trainer to designing databases and systems. In her 20's, she became a global IT leader at 3D Systems, the founders of stereolithography (3D printing technology) and then transitioned into consulting. She became interested in developing this software when she was diagnosed with a health condition that requires her to eat in a restrictive way, even when out at restaurants.
