Jonathan Johnson (He/Him)

I was lucky enough to work with Shaun at the UVic Maker Lab. Together, we worked closely on one of the most technically difficult and ambitious projects I've ever worked on. However, Shaun's highly collaborative working style and strategic framework helped make the unobtainable entirely doable. As a colleague, Shaun is generous and constructive; supportive and encouraging. Whether through blog posts, technical copy, or brainstorm sessions, Shaun is both an outstanding writer and welcome communicator to any collaborative effort. He proved time and again to be an essential component of the Maker Lab team, and a key factor in the success of our project. Whether as a copywriter, strategist, or marketing specialist, I cannot recommend Shaun's skill set and working style enough.

As both a former classmate and former work colleague of mine, Shaun has demonstrated on consistent occasion his abilities to write effective copy, research and execute results-driven campaigns, implement strategic marketing initiatives, and work well with others, all while keeping ROI front of mind. For example, Shaun made significant contributions to the success of multiple brand launches as part of the in-house marketing team of an online-gaming ecommerce company, overseeing content production and organizing email-marketing campaigns by introducing a more analytics-focused approach to concept development. He is a keen learner within the field of digital marketing who can intuit industry trends, understand best practices, and adapt to technological advances, as complemented by his background in the digital humanities. Coupled with his hard skills in writing, editing and researching, I don't doubt his potential to be an asset to any organization.
