The ‘Pyro’ behind HHC is Sue, an adventurous creative soul. Sue and her husband have journeyed across different states before finally settling back in Arizona. She grew up in sunny San Diego, but after raising a family and finishing school had a thirst for exploration and new experiences.

From the vibrant energy of California, Sue and her husband ventured off to the tranquil landscapes of Montana while he completed his internship. Sue has always embraced the simplicity and beauty of the great outdoors, especially in Montana. From there they moved to Arizona, spent a couple years in Prescott and another long three years in Phoenix. From there they went on a three year full-time RV excursion. They set roots for a while the vast expanse of Texas. Wyoming's rugged wilderness captivated them eventually, and they settled there before one more move back to Arizona.  

In 2020, Sue discovered her talent for pyrography, the art of wood burning. Self-taught and determined, she honed her skills in this ancient art form, choosing to opt for the traditional method over modern laser or CNC equipment. Her dedication and love for the craft brought a true old form of decorative art back to life, infusing each piece with a sense of history and authenticity.

Back in Arizona and settled into the wonderful community of Prescott, they share a passion for creativity and design. With his architectural studio open and busy, Sue often finds herself helping out the office, and on the side lines they are bringing their own unique touch to the old small house renovation they live in.

   Outside of her artistic pursuits, Sue is a proud  rescue dog mom and loves hiking in the local forest areas. They both enjoy the Jeep life of overlanding when time allows pursuing the quietness and solace of nature. She finds inspiration in nature, and puts her effort into a life that is intentionally minimalistic and in harmony with the world around her.

 Through her unique journey and creative endeavors, Sue's story is a testament to the power of passion, resilience, and the beauty of embracing old traditions in a modern world.
