Roy Short is the Director of Retail for the Seattle Space Needle and Chihuly Garden and Glass, Seattle’s top attractions and both globally iconic, hosting over two million guests annually. Roy leads the retail organization overseeing four physical locations, two on-line stores, a wholesale business, and product and brand licensing.
With nearly thirty years of high volume retail leadership experience, Roy drives his team and his business with a passion for guest engagement through product storytelling and interactive retail experiences that evoke emotional connections to the guest journey.

Roy, his wife Dana, and their eight year old daughter are all Seattle natives who share a love affair with their city and the Space Needle’s long-standing iconic stature and symbolism of the city. Outside of work Roy is a mid-century modern enthusiast who loves to create and build things in and around his MCM home. When not creating something or adding another rare Space Needle statue to his collection, you can find Roy, the cyclist, exploring the miles of bike friendly trails and roads the region has to offer.
