About / San Francisco, CA

I'm Shawn.

I work on technical programs, take too many photos, plan trips whenever I can, and drink more boba than necessary. I am curious by nature and usually have somewhere new I want to visit, something new I want to try, or a rabbit hole I have happily fallen into.

Since 2025, I have been learning to move through life a little more intentionally. I started taking self care seriously, became vegetarian, and began making more room for the people and experiences that leave me feeling grounded.

Friends would probably describe me as warm, kind, and always ready with a joke. I laugh easily, enjoy making other people laugh, and try to be someone people feel comfortable around. Daisy, my mini Goldendoodle, is usually nearby and deserves at least some of the credit.

Professionally, I care about the connective work: translating complexity, creating clarity, and helping technical teams move in the same direction. Outside of work, I am usually looking through a camera, researching the next trip, or deciding where to get boba.
