I love helping people discover their own ah-ha moments! When it comes to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) work, I’ve found that the work is very much a personal journey. Individuals and companies are on their own path and work at their own pace, yet they compare themselves to others, usually unfairly.
I love to share knowledge, problem solve and get creative about the possibilities. I gain energy from working with people to find solutions that work for them. My first career was in the pharmaceutical industry for 28 years where I gained first-hand experience in the beauty of diverse minds. What makes me unique is I utilize my corporate operational experience and blend it with my passion for making the world a more equitable place. My easy-going style makes this work less daunting, and I focus on what can be done to make positive small shifts. My approach to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion work is collaborative, fun, and educational.
I would be delighted to talk with you about challenges related to DE&I. I believe when we partner to tackle problems, breakthroughs are possible. Let’s change the equation together!

“I’ve attended a few of Shawn’s trainings and they have been informative and transformational. Shawn has a wonderful way of translating information so that it is digestible and can be acted upon – instead of just theoretical. I was also very impressed with how she related current events (even things that happened in the news hours beforehand) to our topic so there were real world examples.”
