Auerbach Architects has designed numerous residential projects, from bathroom renovations to new construction of a home. They have designed schools, restaurants, office buildouts, and office buildings. Prior to founding her own firm, Sue worked for a theatrical lighting company that provided the lighting for LIVE-AID , a concert to raise funds for famine relief. She then worked for Robert Leathers and Associates , a firm that designed playgrounds and oversaw their construction by the residents of the community where the playgrounds were located. Both situations taught a lot about teamwork and the importance of "first-hand" building experience. Sue spent for 8 years with Wheeler Kearns Architects , one of Chicagos most innovative architectural firms. In her extensive work on residential, commercial and institutional projects, Sue honed her design and technical skills. Since 2005, Sue has been a member of the Lincolnwood Zoning Board.

Especially Akita.
