About Mayor Shipley
Term: April 2023 to April 2026
Mayor Shipley and his wife, Amy, chose to start their family and establish roots in Crestwood in 1989. They became active members of Our Lady of Providence and raised four children, fostering a strong sense of faith and a commitment to serving others.
Mayor Shipley earned a master’s degree in telecommunications and information management from Washington University and went on to have a successful 30-year career with Southwestern Bell and AT&T, working in IT and sales roles. In 2014, he was fortunate to retire early.
Embracing this new chapter, he started a small business and devoted more time to giving back to the community through various service projects with his church, the Boy Scouts, and other local organizations. Since then, he has pursued his passions to make a meaningful impact in the community.
Together We Are Crestwood
I proudly stand with Crestwood's City staff, the Board of Aldermen, and all the dedicated volunteers who serve on our City's boards and commissions. Together, we share a commitment to making Crestwood a great place to call home.
Our residents deserve a hometown that strives to deliver personal safety, a healthy and sustainable environment, excellent schools, attractive neighborhoods, exceptional outdoor spaces, dependable infrastructures, well-planned commercial amenities, and engaging activities for all.
Realizing this vision requires building strong community support, as well as fostering a government workplace that prioritizes integrity, continuous improvement, and extraordinary service. By working collaboratively with our residents, we can ensure that their needs and priorities are reflected in everything we do.
Our commitment to maintaining high standards of transparency, accountability, and ethical behavior will help to build trust and confidence in our government and create a culture of excellence that benefits everyone.
I am proud to live in Crestwood and hope that you are too.
