Shane Fitzgerald, SE

Principal

Principal Shane Fitzgerald joined the firm in 2002 and brings nearly 30 years of experience in the AEC community, with expertise in the analysis, design and construction of all building types and specialization in healthcare and educational design. As a Cal Poly SLO alumni, Shane learned early on the importance of teamwork and collaboration, which drives his daily interactions with all project stakeholders. Shane promotes the use of advanced delivery methods including IPD, DB, P3 and others to capture added value by engaging all disciplines and construction trade partners early in the design to ensure highly coordinated systems, while also maintaining cost and schedule requirements.

Within the office, Shane oversees JAMA’s employee recruitment, training, professional growth and development processes with a focus on shaping the next generation of leaders within the firm and AEC industry. Shane promotes an open-door culture at JAMA and champions office-wide staff mentoring, something he received in abundance early in his career.

On a personal note, Shane is obsessed with two things – hockey and home renovation. While a loyal LA Kings fan, who was present for both Stanley Cup victories, Shane also captains his own team in Pasadena and enjoys nothing more than a late night skate with his teammates. If not at the rink, you’ll likely find Shane working on one of his many home improvement projects.
