Meet Kaileen Elise Sues

Kaileen Elise Sues
Happy Living Contributor & Co-Founder
I live in sunny Austin, Texas with my husband. I gather inspiration, and write to-do lists. I consider myself a flexitarian, experimental home cook, and occasional foodie who loves coffee & tea. I am former collegiate swimmer, reluctant runner, and avid yogini.
I graduated cum laude from the University of Nevada – Las Vegas with a degree in Education. In 2007, I moved to San Francisco to pursue an opportunity in software sales. My competitive nature and penchant for helping others led to a six-year stint in corporate recruiting. In that time, I hired over 400 employees for high-growth startups.
Connecting online has become a true passion over the years. In 2009, I started sharing stories and inspiration over at kaileenelise.com. In 2010, I helped lead an end-of-year blogging project that grew from zero to over 4,000 participants in one month.
I believe in the magic of dreaming big, and I’m thrilled to bring the mission of Happy Living to you!
