Positive. Upbeat. To Stan Shelden, the glass is always half full. Whether he’s sketching out a design or spending time with his wife and five daughters, Stan is likely to have a smile on his face. “If you’re not having fun, then please find something else to do!”
You can see Stan’s optimism reflected in his work. As owner and founder of the firm, he takes personal pride and ownership in each project. He believes in his team and the work they produce.
