Shawn J. McCabe
Shawn J. McCabe is the Managing Partner of McCabe Gunn, CPA, PA. Shawn provides consulting, financial, and tax-planning services to individuals, business, retirement plans, and trusts. These services include retirement, financial, estate tax, and gift tax planning.
After serving ten years of active military service and completing a combat tour in Afghanistan, Shawn started his career in financial planning and investments in 2007. Joining the industry at the beginning of the “Great Recession” allowed him to quickly learn that the stock market can be unpredictably cruel, and at the same time, extremely rewarding to those who stayed the course. Also, during that time, he and his clients became an invaluable part of each other’s lives. They relied on him to get them through the worst markets in years. He learned more about life, trust, perseverance, and the undeniable need for clients to have genuine and executable plans.
Shawn’s ability to understand and breakdown the most complex problems, along with his broad professional experience, uniquely equips him to be the perfect coach, mentor, and advisor to his clients on how to achieve and protect their tax-advantaged financial independence.
When he’s not helping his clients plan and execute, he can be found spending time in the gym or traveling with his wife Amy, playing guitar, and singing worship tunes with his daughters Emma and Bella, or rooting his son Ethan on as he’s working his way through college. Shawn earned a Bachelor and Master of Business Administration (MBA) from Saint Leo University. He earned a Master of Science in Accounting (MSA) from Purdue University. He is a Certified Public Accountant (CPA), Personal Financial Specialist (PFS) and CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ professional (CFP®).
