Mark
Pennie
Mr. Pennie owns and operates Pennie Works Studio were he spends
most of his day consumed in heavy duty graphic design. He
originally joined WorkIT to help the center succeed and provide
another way to expand his sphere of friendships.
When Mark was growing up he played baseball and aspired to become
an architect. He also determined that if he were to become a
super hero he would harness the power of flight.
His favorite book is The Bible, while his favorite movie is
Indiana Jones and the Lost Crusade. Mr. Pennie enjoys spending
his days off of work by napping, painting bad forgeries, and
eating at Chipolte. He enjoys smooth jazz, the number pi, and the
day Sunday!
Finally, if Mr. Pennie were stranded on an island he would bring
not one, but three boats and when given the option to become
either a tiny elephant or a giant hamster, he would simply chose
to become a tiny elephant.
