Born and raised in Brooklyn
Actor, poet, singer-songwriter, playwright, musician, freestyle emcee, and producer. Shawn made his off-Broadway playwriting debut at The Cherry Lane Theater as part of their 2020 Mentor Project, mentored by the late Diana Oh.
He made his Broadway debut understudying Common in Stephen Adly Guirgis' Pulitzer Prize-winning, TONY nominated Between Riverside And Crazy. This summer he sang with Josh Groban's choir on his co-headlining arena tour with Jennifer Hudson — performing at Madison Square Garden, Giant Center, and Count Basie Center.
Shawn is a proud member of LAByrinth Theater and Ensemble Studio Theatre, and the founder and host of Symphonics Live — featured at the Blue Note, Joe's Pub, the Highline Ballroom, and the Bowery Poetry Club.
