Mr. Barney grew up and has lived in several places throughout the mid-Atlantic, as his parents relocated while working in the Oil, Gas, and Utilities sector. Shawn attended high school in Maryland and decided to stay in the area for college, as his family continued to move. Shawn attended Towson University, where he received Bachelor’s Degrees in Criminal Justice and Sociology, and played D1-AA rugby throughout his four years at university.
After graduating, Shawn stayed local to Baltimore, and dove headfirst into wireless technology and critical communications sales, which had always piqued his interest since getting his first set of walkie-talkies as a kid. Shawn has worked for large wireless technology resellers and equipment manufacturers, where he worked closely with law enforcement, first responders, and multiple Federal agencies, supplying them with high end communications equipment and technology, to help enhance safety and ensure clear communications while in dangerous situations. Shawn is a knowledgeable technology sales professional with a great understanding of the need to improve safety, visibility, and reliability with technology across various sectors and verticals.
Shawn’s expertise has brought him to MissionGO, where he is excited to help change the utilities, infrastructure, critical cargo delivery, and first responder markets with MissionGO’s unmatched UAS solutions and services.
Outside of MissionGO, Shawn and his wife Angela enjoy traveling, good food, and anything active & outdoors to stay in shape and help tire out their dog.
