Shawn Lopez has been working as a creative professional since his early days doing web and graphic design in the mid-90s. Though his academic degree is in metalsmithing, he is as comfortable with a mouse and a keyboard as he is with a hammer and a torch. Before arriving at The Ohio State University in 2023, Shawn managed digital fabrication labs for both the University of North Texas and Wesleyan University in Connecticut.
