This month, we’re shining the spotlight on Shawn, one of our multitalented engineers whose journey to ISM is as unique as it is inspiring.

Before joining us in Montana, Shawn’s path stretched from the sunshine of Tampa, Florida—where he studied music and managed businesses creating automated marketing campaigns—to the bustling innovation hubs of Atlanta, Georgia, where he taught kids and adults alike about Innovative Design Thinking. Eventually, the call of the mountains (and family) brought him to Big Sky Country—and we’re sure glad it did.

When asked what he loves most about ISM, Shawn couldn’t choose just one thing.
“The educational side is too valuable,” he said, “but the team and the atmosphere make it the kind of place you want to come to every day.”

Off the clock, Shawn’s world is full of life: from video games and sunshine hikes to hanging out with his beloved pets. He also has some wild life stories—including getting slimed on the Nickelodeon stage and working with Kevin Harrington and the Zig Ziglar Foundation.

Thanks for bringing your creativity, curiosity, and good vibes to the team, Shawn — we’re lucky to have you!
