I’ve had the privilege of knowing and working with Shawn over the last 10 years on many projects. Within that time I have come to admire Shawn, his work ethic, and the passion seen in his creative work. Shawn quickly understands his clients requests and requirements allowing him to create original concepts, or ones based on a predetermined direction.
This same energy can be seen when leading teams and presenting to others. As Shawn started from the bottom in his field, he is fully aware of how a team of creatives think, how they will react, and what can be outputted. This experience is also seen when dealing with clients where his knowledge is fully visible.
