Having accrued nearly seven decades of professional experience, Shirley Dahl Shipley is a proven leader in the fields of energy production, education and community engagement.

At the beginning of her professional journey, Mrs. Shipley earned a bachelor's degree from Cedar Crest College in 1954.

To better serve her community, Mrs. Shipley has been heavily engaged with a multitude of local organizations. Most notably, she spent more than three decades on the board of York College of Pennsylvania in various roles, including as a trustee, executive committee member and chair of its Country Day School.
