Ms. Surty's varied and extensive expertise ranges from finance, budgeting, and foreclosure prevention counseling, to financial capability counseling.

Ms. Surty has supported family and friends with mental health struggles, and is especially inspired by today’s young people: "Many in that group believe there is nothing to be ashamed of, and this inspires me to further the cause of destigmatizing ADHD.
