We’re incredibly proud to share that David has been inducted into the Minnesota Business Hall of Fame this year by Twin Cities Business. Each year, only five leaders are selected; individuals whose leadership, innovation, and impact have helped shape business across the state. It’s a real honor, and one that feels especially meaningful to all of us who know him and his work firsthand.
As we look ahead to our 50th anniversary in 2028, nearly five decades since David founded the firm, it’s remarkable to reflect on what’s been built: close to 4,000 unique projects and more than 800 clients in Minnesota alone. That kind of legacy doesn’t happen by accident. It’s the result of vision, persistence, and a deep commitment to doing things the right way.
Please join me in congratulating David on this well-deserved recognition. It’s a proud moment, not just for him, but for all of Shea, and a great reminder of the kind of work, culture, and impact we’re building together every day.
– Tanya Spaulding, Partner/Principal at Shea
