for extreme and complex environments. His recent work includes the design of interior and
human systems products for Axiom Space, contributing across multiple programs such as space stations crew systems, EVA spacesuits, and private astronaut missions.
His approach is shaped by direct experience in demanding environments and a sustained
interest in how design influences safety, usability, and operational performance under stress. Shawn connects physical design to the broader product experience, with attention to how
systems are understood, interacted with, and trusted by the people who rely on them.
