About Suzanne

Originally from Upstate and Central New York, Suzanne was educated in the Jesuit Tradition at Le Moyne College, where she received Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and Marketing, and later earned the degree of Master of Business Administration. A Jesuit education is more than just textbooks and classrooms – it’s a way of teaching and learning that enriches every part of a student’s life on campus and beyond. Suzanne has strived to embody the characteristics consistent with the Jesuit ideals including pursuit of knowledge, a focus on personal integrity, ethical behavior and commitment to excellence.

Suzanne is well prepared to help you achieve your employment goals, having spent more than 25 years in sales and customer service driven industries, where she developed a passion for helping others and creating close client relationships. After relocating to the Gulf Coast of Florida, Suzanne decided she needed to make a change. She had the desire to do something that changed people’s lives, and required more people interaction. The transition to Patrice & Associates was a natural progression. Suzanne’s ability to provide leadership and direction to candidates and clients alike makes her a strong recruiter.

Suzanne looks forward to continuing to coach and mentor people as they grow and work toward meeting their career goals, building relationships with both her clients and candidates, and striving to make the perfect match for both parties involved.

Suzanne lives in Safety Harbor, FL – home of the historic Espiritu Santo Springs, or “Springs of the Holy Spirit”, a natural mineral spring. Its waters were given this name in 1539 by the Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto, who was supposedly searching for the mythical “Fountain of Youth”.

Duke Witte absolutely was amazing! 

I am writing to express my sincere gratitude to Duke Witte for his assistance in finding me a new job in the hospitality industry. I was disgruntled with my previous job, and I was feeling very discouraged about my prospects. I had been working in the restaurant industry for many years, and I had a lot of experience and skills, but I was having a hard time finding a better opportunity.

I was contacted via LinkedIn by Duke, and thank goodness I was.  Mr. Witte was incredibly helpful and supportive throughout the entire process. He took the time to understand my skills and experience, and worked tirelessly to find me a job that was a good fit.

Duke was also very honest and upfront with me about the job market. He didn't sugarcoat things, but also didn't give up on me. He kept me motivated and encouraged, and never gave up on finding me a job that I would love.

I am so grateful to Duke Witte and his team for their help. I am now happily employed, and I am so happy that I was able to find a job that I love. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for a job in the restaurant industry. He is a true professional, and is dedicated to helping his clients find the perfect job!

Thank you again for everything!

Working with Chris Bovio made job searching so much easier! 

Not only was he available and involved in my search, but also knowledgeable regarding the position. Chris used his industry experience and recruiting network to find the best position for me and my skill set. My only regret is that my new job is so perfect for me that I won’t need to use Chris or Patrice & Associates later.

Thanks,

Bryan Curtis was fantastic to work with!

Bryan was very on top of things throughout my recruiting process to the engineering firm I accepted my position with.  I responded to his LinkedIn posting and heard back from him within 24 hours. He continually spoke with me throughout the process checking in regularly and answering all my questions. Bryan was instrumental in helping me find a great job.

Thanks!
