Currently employed in the respectable position of Art Director for the world-famous Griffith Observatory, Shawn has been in the past a retail clerk, bartender, video arcade manager, bookseller, motorcycle courier, computer technical support representative, museum docent/caretaker, telemarketing researcher and nudie-girl web designer.   More notably he has been a prop builder for Star Trek, a toy designer for Mattel and Playmates, a modelmaker of museum-quality display and architectural models for the Disney theme parks, and a graphic artist/computer game designer.   His resume looks like he has a desire to experience everything at once, but it may just be a really short attention span.

Shawn is a founding member of the Enigma Players and Lux Theater, and has been involved in more than 50 productions in venues varying from 35 to 3500 seats.   Possessing a knack for voiceover characterizations and mimicry, he has performed over 150 character voices such as Mickey Mouse, Sean Connery, William Shatner and Kermit the Frog for radio, toys, and multimedia software titles.   Despite these accomplishments, he will probably forever be best known as the owner of the "H-Wing" Star Wars art car.
