.028 Shannon Dragsbaek

When I think of Shannon, I quickly picture her carrying camera equipment across campus, on her way to work on another incredible project. Shannon is a total badass and inspired me constantly during college with her tenacity and drive to do good, meaningful work. What made this better was her fabulous personality and quick sense of humor. I could always count on her to make me laugh, to be honest about anything I was asking about, and to help me with anything I was working on.

Simply put, Shannon and I crossed paths a bunch during college, and each and every time, she was kind, helpful, extremely intelligent, and a producer of fantastic work.

Shannon, thank you very much for being a friend and for making many of my days at GW better by being in them. Thank you for your expert work with TEDxFoggyBottom and thank you for your patience through all of that, and with me. Thank you for being so generous with your time and efforts, and for standing up for what you believe in while not taking shit from anyone. I’m really grateful to know you and am so happy to have worked with you, even if it was years and years ago. Thank you for being you!
