She’s been called “a powerful voice for nonprofits” by the Huffington Post, voted in the top 100 women in Seattle tech by TechFlash, was among seven across the world honored as a top women in technology at the 2010 South by Southwest Conference Digitini event and was recognized by the LA Times as part of the “Female Empire of Women in Tech.” Her name is Shauna Causey and we’re proud she’s now a part of Ant’s Eye View.
Shauna joins Ant’s Eye View from Comcast where she managed communications, community relations and partnered with Frank Eliason to lead many aspects of the company’s social media strategy.
Having worked closely with Shauna over the past year as Social Media Club Seattle Board members, I’ve witnessed firsthand Shauna’s passion for social media and the power these new technologies afford for real change in the community. And Shauna’s combination of moxie, understated charm and sheer will power has allowed her to do just that. Whether it’s launching Voluntweetup, a summer event series where local technology enthusiasts train and educate nonprofits on how to use social media effectively or starting TechMavens, a project that highlights the stories of trailblazing women involved in technology and social media across the United States, Shauna’s helped transform the way people think of social media – from beyond technology to what technology can do for society.
In her free time, Shauna is an avid beach volleyball player and serves on the Board for a number of nonprofits including Leadership Tomorrow and the Jolkona Foundation.
Shauna’s new role as Senior Consultant and Ant Evangelist will have her traveling up and down the West Coast adding her corporate communications and community relations experience to the team. She’ll join the firm officially on August 9 and begin immediately supporting the company’s growing roster of enterprise clients in the Silicon Valley area.
Please join us in warmly welcoming the talented Shauna Causey (@shaunacausey) to the anthill.
