About Me

From crunching through the icy glaciers of Mt. Rainier to bowhunting turkey in the big sage-drenched Intermountain West, I’ve carved out a woodsy lifestyle that is all about getting outside. There’s only one thing I love more than living it—writing about it!

I’m Shawn—outdoor writer and professional copywriter. Previously, I worked as a copywriter on Netrush’s creative team, delivering top-shelf, on-brand, and on-point copy to our partner brands in the outdoors and health and wellness spaces.

Discovering writing in my teens, I aspired to lofty Stephen King heights with my crappy fictional short stories. They were awful! Later, I moved on to creating content, website copy, advertisements, and print copy for local artists in the music industry. Ahh, the young digital marketing of the early 2000s.

Not happy unless I’m juggling 20 things at once, I was marketing local artists, working at REI, and working as a seasonal biological technician. All this while working on my wildlife biology degree at the University of Washington. Whew!

Since the days of creating press kits, hooting for owls, and diving off ATVs to catch sage grouse, I’ve entered a new chapter. I look forward to bringing you creative and compelling copy that captures the imagination and converts curious browsers into paying customers.
