The Challenges Keep Coming
Munn has played a significant role in a wide variety of difficult
projects, many of which are close to large bodies of water. They
have all required innovative shoring systems, micropile
foundations, and new technologies and materials. These have
surely tested her mettle, and she has been ready for it. Past
Geo-Institute president, Alan Macnab, P. Eng., G.E., D.GE, who
serves on Isherwood's Advisory Board, worked with Munn for
10 years in his capacity as a mentor and trainer in the area of
project management. McNab shares, " I found her to be bright,
determined, tough, yet sensitive, with a clear sense of fair play.
She would implement suggestions and lessons learned without
fear, and revel in the results. I took her through a course on
contract negotiation, and she was the star of the class. "
DFI Support
Munn is a member of DFI's Women in Deep Foundations
Committee. She notes that the positive reinforcement
committee members receive is very important, especially to
young women that are new to engineering fields, which tend
to be male-dominated. She offers, " Interacting in the
committee lets you see how other strong women navigate the
industry and gives you confidence to do the same. Being
involved is like supporting a column. A person can achieve and
manage so much more with a little bit of support from others. "
Shawna leading educational visit at Laird Station site
Munn thoroughly enjoys her participation in DFI, not only
her committee service but also on the technical side as well.
She has presented papers at DFI annual conferences since she
became involved in 2018.
Final Takeaway
How do those who know her best feel about her? Cohort Tara
Brown sums it up. " Shawna is very supportive of her
colleagues. She is willing to fight for what is right. She has
great energy. Whenever you enter the office, you know that
she is there. "
In January 2020, Shawna brought daughter Nora into the
world. She says she loves being a mom and strives to maintain
a balance between the demands of work and motherhood. She
credits Isherwood as being 100 percent supportive of her
successful juggling of career and family. This is a life story
that, like baby Nora, is growing, with great things to come.
