Hi, I’m Shawn McClelland, a designer in Vancouver.

Currently, I am the Head of Design Platform at Intuit. Previously, I was Director of Design at Autodesk and Head of Design at Unity, leading teams building tools for millions of creators.

My work has been used by major studios including ILM, Pixar, DreamWorks, Sony, Bungie, and Rockstar.
