Susan Daly has over twenty-five years of leadership and marketing experience with high-tech startups, groundbreaking sports teams, educational programs for nontraditional learners, consumer goods and services, and workforce development programs. As wide-ranging as her experience has been, what she loves most is working in a start-up mode and doing what has not been done before—so she is the right person to step into the newly created role of VP of Marketing and Programs. Before joining RIMTA, Susan was VP of Marketing at IYRS and she is a longtime member of RIMTA’s Education & Training Committee, which procured $1 million in federal and state funding for training, marketing and organization-capacity building under her chairmanship.
Susan has worked for several leading sailing companies—including Vanguard Sailboats, Quokka Sports, and America3, the women’s America’s Cup team—and is an avid competitive sailor. Susan is also a board member of the Landing School, Sail Newport, and the Yale Sailing Associates.
