Ellen Peniston
Marketing Specialist | Proposal Coordinator | Pursuit Rockstar
My marketing journey began in construction, and I simply couldn’t stop there. I NEEDED to know more about the industry. While working at Shaffer Creative, I have had the opportunity to collaborate with all sides of the AEC industry, and I couldn’t love it more. Working with a team that is excited and passionate about what they do awakens a competitive drive in me that I have never seen before – a ‘Can’t stop, won’t stop’ attitude. I enjoy leveraging dedication and ownership for commitments to strategically build compelling proposals, presentations, and marketing materials.
When I’m not collaborating with awesome pursuit teams to create proposals, you can find me hiking or camping through the Ozarks with my husband and our sweet pupper, or searching for Taylor Swift concert tickets! I might also be scrolling through airline apps, just in case I find a cheap flight to (INSERT COOL PLACE TO VISIT WITH YUMMY FOOD) or spending time with my crazy family.
- My ideal start to the weekend: Sleeping in and drinking a great cup of coffee on Saturday morning!
- My favorite hobby: I love hiking, camping, and anything outdoors.
- What I’m best known for: Won’t clock out until the job is knocked out.
- My favorite vacation destination: Is it fair to say I don’t know yet?? BUT the number one place on my vacation list right now is Steve Irwin’s Zoo and then over to the Great Barrier Reef in Australia.
