Dr. Suzanne M. Keller began her teaching career while she was still in graduate school at the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio. Inspired by her lifelong passion for learning, Suzanne quickly adopted a teaching style focused on translating challenging concepts into easily understood parts using stories and analogies from her own experiences. An Iowa native, Dr. Suzanne uses her expertise to teach anatomy and physiology and microbiology at Indian Hills Community College, where most of her college students are studying nursing or other health science programs.

Suzanne values education as a way for her students to express their values through the careers they pursue. Dr. Keller supports those endeavors both in and out of the classroom by participating in her local Lions Club, by donating money to the Indian Hills Foundation to fund scholarships, and by financially supporting service-learning trips for students. She also sponsors children in need with gifts for the holidays.

Ms Keller is a member of the Iowa Academy of Science and the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS). When not writing or teaching, she enjoys reading, family gatherings, traveling, and relaxing at home under the watchful eyes of her 2 dogs.
