About Shannon Russo

About Shannon Russo: I am proud to be the driving force behind the WeNeedaVacation.com Homeowner Blog, our Homeowner Tutorial Video Series and the design of our WeNeedaVacation.com email communications. Though I wear many hats in the office, I most enjoy assisting Cape and Islands homeowners with the knowledge I have gained from owning a just-off Cape vacation rental home for over ten years. Raised on the Canadian prairies, I fell in love with the ocean at first sight and would gladly spend the rest of my life in a shack on the beach or sailing the seas. I currently reside in Framingham with my husband, my teenage son, and an ageless pitbull mix named Coogan.
