Shelton Sorrels Bridges IV
About Shelton
Biography
I am attorney Shelton Bridges, a fifth-generation native Floridian born in Tallahassee. I have resided in Tampa since graduating from law school in 1999. I am the first attorney in my family.
I am an active member of the Hyde Park United Methodist Church where I teach 5th grade Sunday school. I also volunteer with 4th and 5th graders on Wednesday nights during the school year in a program called Club 45. I enjoy volunteering with my church because it is my way of contributing to the community where I live and have proudly called home for almost 20 years. I believe in working with children and young people and try to be a good example.
I am an avid college sports fan, love to read, love animals, and enjoy spending down time with family and friends.
