Shaun leads district operations which include the Downtown Ambassadors and Clean Team program as well as all public programming within the Special Services District (SSD). Previously as the Director of Placemaking with the Partnership since 2010, Shaun takes a multi-faceted approach to the planning, design and management of public spaces. Helping visions evolve quickly into implementation strategies, Shaun begins with small-scale, do-able improvements that can immediately benefit public spaces and the people who use them. He has been instrumental in bringing monthly and annual programs to Downtown Tampa including Rock the Park, a free monthly music series, and Winter Village, an eight week holiday experience featuring waterfront dining, ice skating, and holiday shops in Tampa’s Downtown.
Shaun received his Bachelor of Landscape Architecture degree from Louisiana State University in 2004. In 2017 he was selected as one of the industry’s brightest professionals by the International Downtown Association to participate in their prestigious Emerging Leaders Fellowship Program. He stays involved in the local community by serving on the Board of Directors for the Gasparilla Festival of the Arts where he served as the 2013 Festival President.
Come to a meeting. Join a committee. We look forward to hearing how we can help you shape Tampa’s future!
