ABOUT SHANNON

Shannon joined Aiken, St. Louis & Siljeg, P.S. in 2022.  Previously she was with Tuohy Minor Kruse PLLC, where her practice focused on fiduciary law (Guardianships, Vulnerable Adult Protection proceedings, Estate Planning, Trust and Estate administration); Landlord/Tenant and General Business Law.

Shannon’s legal career began as a criminal appellate attorney with the Washington Appellate Project where she practiced before Divisions I and II of the Court of Appeals and the Washington Supreme Court.  After her father’s cancer diagnosis, Shannon worked for the American Cancer Society and the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center as a Senior Regulatory Affairs Associate.

Shannon graduated from Whitman College and Seattle University School of Law.  Equally important has been the wealth of knowledge drawn from many hours spent as a community volunteer.
