Getting to Know Our Very Own Tanya Spaulding

This month, we are very proud to find Shea principal, Tanya Spaulding, in Twin Cities Business magazine's listing of "200 Minnesotans You Should Know." We, of course, think the publication is right...if you don't already, you should definitely get to know her! She's in great company on the list, which just hit newsstands this week. Many of our clients and friends have also been represented, including Tres Lund of Lunds/Byerly's, Tim McKee of La Belle Vie, Alex Roberts of Brasa, Kam Talebi of Crave, Joe Dowling of the Guthrie Theater, Tom Hoch of the Hennepin Theaters, Mike Tattersfield of Caribou Coffee, and William Cooper of TCF. Get yourself a copy of the magazine or visit tcbmag.com to see all 200.

Here's the listing as it appears in the magazine:

Tanya Spaulding, Principal, Shea

If you've dined at a hot restaurant such as Masu Sushi & Robata, Crave, or Barrio, you've savored the Shea experience. The Minneapolis agency that Spaulding runs with founder David Shea has whipped up a distinctive recipe that blends branding and architecture. The Shea team's work evinces both wit and diversity. "We're like cultural sponges," says Spaulding, who has been with the firm since 1999. Restaurants make up about 40 percent of Shea's work. The firm will soon be raising its profile even higher as it transforms the former Shinder's store on Hennepin Avenue into its new headquarters.
