About Me
I'm Susan Nicholson, I joined Bigfish in the fall of 2009.  My work revolves around social media for Bigfish clients. I'm excited about this opportunity because of the creative and genuine people that work here. I feel fortunate to be a part of such an excellent team.  I'll work with them, use my interest in design, tap into my marketing degree, and use my organizational skills to help our clients develop and implement social media programs. We're going to do some neat things together -- sometimes in 140 characters or less.
 
I'm a southern girl from birth and have called Memphis my home for the last 19 years - time that has fueled a love for Elvis Presley. I've enjoyed finding other interesting things around town, too.  One of my favorites is an eatery called The Beauty Shop. I also enjoy the historical architecture around midtown. One of my other favorite pass times is taking road trips. That often finds me headed to Nashville. But, most of the time you will find me out for a jog or in the gym.
 
Above any of these other interests is a passion for my family. I love to catch a musical performance featuring my youngest son or look for art on adventurous road trips with my oldest. Then, of course, there is my husband, Tim. We met as teenagers. I continue to enjoy his love and company with the same youthful passion.
 
My attitude can be summed up with a quote by Mark Twain - You will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did do... Explore. Dream. Discover.    This idea helped me through long days and challenging assignments when I returned to and graduated from college as an adult.

Trentisms

One of the things I love about my oldest son Trent is his dry witted sense of humor. Trent has provided us with a lifetime of laughs sometimes spontaneous and sometimes accidental. Here are just a few of my favorites with continuous updates:

In response to the waitresses question after dinner for anything else:  "No thanks, I'm bloated"

In response to a drink overflow and minor mishaps: "Uh oh, I messed up"

To a weekend host's house pet: "Thanks Gus for only waking ME up"

Working on a design: "It's hard to make blue girly"

2010 Winter Olympics: "If I was an ice skater... I would only skate to Star Wars songs"

Nashville flood, May 1 2010. In response to water conservation after the flood: "So...does all this water conservation mean I can pee outside so I don't have to flush the toilet?"

November elections: "Bill Cosby called me "lazy" because I didn't vote. It would have cost me $30 to go vote."

"I have mental vision"

All the Amish guests staying at our hotel: "Awesome and it's Thanksgiving!"

"My boots fart today, I swear it's not me!"

In response to regular TV programs replaced by holiday programming: "Thanks Christmas for taking away my Golden Girls!"

While trying to watch Everybody Loves Raymond. "I'm turning it back to Idol. I would rather see a guy cry than listen to that woman whine."

I'm selling, who's buyin?


Education
