A lifelong Bronx resident, Shea is a graduate of the Gabelli School of Business, the Fordham graduate school of Business Administration, and the Fordham School of Law. He was recognized by the NYPD 28 times in the grades of excellent and meritorious police duty and is a supporter of the Brian Mulkeen Memorial endowed scholarship.
