Suzanne Zazulak Pedro was reared in the Deep 
South, nee’ a la Nouvelle Orleans (New Orleans, 
Louisiana) which was her first foray into the world of 
etiquette. 

She descended from Ukrainian sovereigns and her 
own crowning as Queen Omega XVIII for Mardi 
Gras 2004 in Hammond, Louisiana, combined with 
her educational endeavors in psychology and law 
has allowed her to recognize and extract the 
goodness in others. 

Certified by The American School of Protocol in 
corporate and children’s etiquette and a Bachelor 
of Arts in Psychology from Loyola University of the 
South have allowed her to combine the two into a 
unique classification as a social engineer. 

Ms. Pedro’s marriage to a senior international 
airline captain (ret.) had allowed her the opportunity 
to transverse many continents and participate in 
the customs of a global society. 

Presently, she resides in Hammond, Louisiana 
where she is the town’s first Chief Officer of 
Protocol, with her husband, mother and a multitude 
of four-legged children. Several books for both 
corporate and children’s art and psychology of 
etiquette are in development.

The children’s division of The Protocol Praxis 
offers the child a unique opportunity to build 
their self-esteem via instruction in life skills in 
order to avoid the pitfalls of unacceptable 
behavior. 

The applications of these skills will help fortify 
the child’s character development by learning 
to express themselves for positive attention. In 
this process, the aged term of deportment and 
the obscure acknowledgment to the “Golden 
Rule” is reversed and become the child’s new 
mantra.

etiquette diploma are:

The ABC’s of Formal Dining (silent 

service, zigzag and continental)

an efficiency report after each session, and 
the instructor will be available to discuss the 
evaluations. 

Additional programs will be offered 
throughout the year. One exciting option in 
process development is a European 
Excursion during the summer of 2008.
