About Brandon Penny

If there is one thing you should know about me, it\'s that I work hard and play hard, always. I have more personality in my fingertips than most people have in their entire bodies. I’m an innovative problem solver that’s proactive, adventurous, extremely driven, and thorough.I have a contagious smile and make friends effortlessly because I inspire people to think big. I believe that collaboration is at the core of a creative business and will continually measure my efforts and dig deeper to give more and exceed all expectations. I am able to execute multiple priorities on tight deadlines without compromising quality. Never will I fail to provide the support my team and I need to grow; I am a relentless giver. I prioritize and plan like I invented it and handle pressure just the same. I‘ve got skills you didn’t even know you were looking for and am picking up new ones constantly; I have so much to offer.I’m all about making incredible things happen and taking risks by breaking the boundaries and stretching people\'s perceptions of what is \'safe\'. I’m so organized it’s scary and really, I’m a blast to work with. I crave opportunity and am a lightning-fast learner, i.e, I\'m hungry to learn and kick ass.
