Closer to home, Sean has built numerous mixed-use and mixed-income projects throughout Central Texas and leads a nonprofit that provides affordable housing in East Austin. He also works with community colleges across the country to create impactful workforce development plans that provide hands-on experience in local industries and trades.
When he’s not sketching out his next community strategy, Sean enjoys the great outdoors as an avid mountain biker, water polo player, and open water swimmer."
