Shawn Erickson

Shawn started his career as a master control operator/technician at the PBS station in Appleton, MN.
He then moved to KSAX TV in Alexandria, MN to run master control and within 18 months started directing their news updates.
He eventually became a photographer shooting news and commercial spots and moved on to Conus' ALL News Channel as an editor.
His schedule allowed him to freelance in the Minneapolis market for KTCA TV as a master control operator and for KMSP TV as an editor/live-microwave technician.
As another of Conus' multiple-tour veterans, his first position at Conus was running satellite traffic and coordinating live news events.
From there Shawn joined Crawford Communications in Atlanta as a Satellite Uplink Operator.
He later rejoined Conus as on-site coordinator for the 2000 political convention coverage season and later the position of Project Manager for Production and Satellite Services.
Shawn is a graduate of the video production program at Hutchinson Technical College, Hutchinson, Minnesota.
When he's not trying to out-do his partners in providing top-notch customer service, Shawn enjoys spending time with his wife and two young boys (ages 7 and 1) and that includes riding motorcycles with the 7-year-old (yes, he has his own!).
As a matter of fact Shawn enjoys following the happenings in the motorcycle industry and motor sports in general.
