Suzy Doherty
2023 ALI Partner

Suzy Doherty brings to ALI experience in advertising, branding, and patient advocacy. She began her career in New York at the advertising agencies Young & Rubicam and Saatchi & Saatchi.  She transitioned in-house and led branding and advertising efforts at Showtime Networks and a public start-up in Boston.  

After her son’s diagnosis with type one diabetes at two years old, Suzy shifted her focus to patient advocacy.  She has served on the New England board of directors of JDRF, the leading public charity in T1D, and for nearly ten years led large-scale events raising millions of dollars toward T1D care and cures. Suzy has coached countless families with a focus on both the physical and mental wellbeing of the parent and child dealing with this chronic disease.  

Suzy joins her husband, Sean Doherty, as an Advanced Leadership Initiative Partner.
