Shimkus briefly attended college after high school before life took him in a different direction. When he completed his military service in 2011, he was determined to finish his college education. As an adult student balancing work and school, he needed flexible classes to fit his busy life and advisors who understood military-affiliated students like him. In 2016, Shimkus crossed the finish line with a Bachelor of Science in Sport Management.
