Shawn Bresnehan was born and raised in the Oconomowoc area. Shortly after graduating from Oconomowoc High School in 2003, he began working as a Residential Counselor at Margaret Ruth home. In May 2006, Shawn was promoted to Assistant Manager. In addition to being Assistant Manager, Shawn is very active in coaching many of PWHO’s Special Olympic teams.
“I enjoy spending time with all the Margaret Ruth residents and all the residents from all of the PWHO Homes. I really enjoy coaching and going to all the Special Olympics tournaments with the residents.”
Shawn is very “laid back” and brings a “calmness” to Margaret Ruth. He enjoys interacting and joking with the residents and loves to hear the laughter and see the smiles on their faces as they go about their day.
Shawn grew up here in Oconomowoc and played football for the local high school. He now spends his time chasing his almost 2 year old son. On Saturday’s in the fall you can catch Shawn cheering for his Ohio State Buckeyes as well as spending the weekend watching NASCAR.
