Oculus Inc. announced today that Marketing Director Shevaun McNaughton is retiring from her full-time role after 23 years with the firm. McNaughton will continue working with Oculus as a strategic marketing consultant, providing guidance on major pursuits, proposal strategy, and marketing systems.

McNaughton joined Oculus in 2003 and, over the past two decades, has led the firm’s marketing and federal business development efforts. During her tenure, she played a key role in expanding Oculus’ federal practice, advancing strategic growth initiatives, and developing many of the pursuit strategies and business development processes that continue to support the firm’s success.

“Twenty-three years ago, Shevaun joined Oculus, and over the years, she has been a trusted advisor, a dear friend, and someone who genuinely cares about the people and work around her,” said Lisa Bell-Reim, AIA, President and Founder of Oculus Inc. “Shevaun helped tell the story of Oculus while also helping shape our growth along the way. Her continued support as a strategic consultant during this transition reflects our shared commitment to ensuring a seamless transition for clients, teaming partners, and employees.”

Reflecting on her retirement, McNaughton said, “Serving Oculus for the past 23 years has been one of the greatest privileges of my career. I am incredibly proud of what we have accomplished together, the clients we’ve earned, the relationships we’ve built, the reputation we’ve strengthened, and the remarkable people I’ve had the opportunity to work alongside every day. Although I’m retiring from my full-time role, I look forward to continuing to support Oculus and its clients as a strategic consultant while enjoying more time with my family.”

McNaughton’s consulting role will focus on strategic pursuit support, proposal development, marketing systems transition, and mentoring, helping preserve the institutional knowledge and client relationships she has developed throughout her career.
