Brett Tabke, PubCon founder and show organizer, said, “Shawn is responsible for marketing of the greatest entertainment franchise in Las Vegas history. While the Rat Pack and Elvis laid the foundations of Vegas, today’s Strip lives and breathes on a potent mix of resident Cirque Du Soleil shows. Knowing what is next in marketing is not just a nice idea for Cirque – it is a requirement. Remember about a week ago when the press discovered that presidentail candidate Barack Obama was doing “in game” advertisments on Xbox? Rorick was doing that stuff with Cirque two years ago. This is Vegas – go big or go home!”

His interests focus on direct marketing and branding innovations via emerging media finding early opportunities in web development and digital formats that led him to specialize in multiple online marketing practices.
