How long were you/have you been a member of CUPE? In what roles?

I have been a CUPE member for 10years in August 2023. I started off in the City of Colwood in the Parks Department and worked in the parks for 7 years. I then became Operations assistant and now am the Occupational Health and Safety Advisor.

Shaun was also recently appointed as a Worker Representative to the board of the BC Municipal Safety Association.

Tell us about your life outside of work.

I live in Saanich—I love camping with my wife and 2 boys. We spend a good portion of our time watching our children perform for us in the hockey rink and the lacrosse box.
We are very active and we look forward to any opportunity for an adventure. We love spending time with our friends and local church community. My ideal vacation would include snowboarding, mountain biking, surfing and reading.

What advice do you have for those who are new to the workforce?

Get involved—there is so much opportunity—I never would have known how much I care about Labour Relations if I didn’t put my hand up to become a shop steward. There are so many opportunities waiting for you by saying yes.
