Shawn Selk, chief financial officer at Milwaukee-based Altius Building Co., has 20 years of experience within the commercial real estate development industry.
“Shawn is an excellent motivator and communicator with strong client service skills as well as the ability to manage a diverse set of cross-organizational responsibilities. He has served as guest lecturer for UW-Milwaukee’s Lubar School of Business and is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Wisconsin Institute of Certified Public Accountants,” said Scott Drees, president and CEO of Altius.
Selk is also a certified yoga instructor and affiliated with the Yoga Alliance, having studied under Fr. Joe Pereira of the Kripa Foundation in India. He developed a passion for yoga during his recovery from a major auto accident, according to Drees.
“When he is not off crunching numbers, creating and implementing improved financial strategies or bringing inner peace to those within his ‘Yoga with Shawn’ group, he is mentoring our company’s senior accountant or assisting another (architecture, engineering and construction) company with their accounting needs.”
