Susu Al Qazzaz raised her four children. before Susu came to America, she used to be a biology teacher. She sacrificed her profession so she could raise her four children.

As such, she became a source of strength and inspiration for her children, especially Huda. Because she became a homemaker, not much is known about her mother aside from her devotion to her family.

Susu Al Qazzaz instilled a love of their home culture in her children, which still reverberates to this day. Huda hopes to emulate her mother in raising her daughter, Nour Giselle, whom she had with her husband, Christopher Goncalo.
