Klassen-Koop, Shawn: - Shawn\'s passion for Building a Better World grew from many years of working at a summer camp.
Shawn jumped on it, wanting to do whatever he could to share these ideas with others..
It was during this time that the opportunity to work on Building a Better World in Your Backyard came up.
Shawn was preparing to start his own homestead when he was faced with serious health challenges that prevented him from doing any physical work.
It was then that he stumbled upon and fell in love with permaculture as a way to use his design skills to work with nature rather than against nature.
In time, he felt like modern technology was causing more problems than it was solving, and he started looking for a Better way.
Seeking to solve World problems with clever thinking, Shawn decided to pursue computer engineering as a career, where he learned the importance of good design and strong critical thinking.
This time inspired awe and wonder for the natural World through many hours camping in the woods, paddling on a lake, or sleeping under the stars.
