I helped hire Shannon at Instrument after meeting her and immediately realizing she would be an asset to our Producer group. Shannon worked for Instrument on several teams, but most notably on our Nike account. She knows how to run large, complex creative and technical projects for global clients with smoothness and ease. Shannon balances the Client needs with those of the Agency, while earning and keeping the trust of her internal team. This is not a simple problem to solve time and time again, but she is adept at it. Shannon is also a joy to have as a colleague and quickly became a cultural leader and friend to Instrument through and through. Her smile and attitude are infectious, and this makes working through tough situations a little easier, which is hugely important. Shannon takes her work seriously and is a total pro, but what we loved about Shannon was that she loves life equally and brings that energy to work every day, regardless of the situation. Thanks.

Occasionally one gets the pleasure of working with someone that not only improves the work - they improve your day. Shannon’s laughter and charisma is infectious. She doesn’t just do projects, she immerses herself in them to discover what the client and the consumer really need. She’s a pleasure to work with and she’s fun to be around. If that’s not enough, you’ll want to hire ‘Shannon the Cannon’ solely for the sake of your company’s softball team.

Shannon is very smart and driven as proven when she helped manage and service clients at citrus. Without her attention to detail, along with her ability to see the big picture, we would not have been able to provide the excellent service we did. She is proactive and extremely good at staying on top of new technologies and figuring out how they can strategically help achieve marketing goals. She is a quick study, very good at building relationships and great at anticipating what clients need before they have to ask. She responds well to guidance and mentoring and continually seeks to learn and gain experience which will add value to any team / company she works with.

We are now entering our third project with Shannon / Lodi Winegrape Commission and we could not ask for a better business relationship. Shannon is a true professional and excels as a Marketing Manager. She has the rare ability to be extremely detail oriented, while still maintaining a creative vision/openness. She has allowed us to do what we do best as creatives and still manage the sometimes impossible task of ‘design by committee’ that comes with a management position. It has been a pleasure working with her professionally and getting to know her personally. I look forward to many future projects together.

Shannon was one of the best Account Coordinators we ever hired at citrus. Eventually growing into an Account Manager. She has excellent communication skills and is very poised for her level of experience. We were impressed with her drive and willingness to put in the extra time to get something done right. A ‘can do’ attitude. Interested in her craft. Not just a job. Where other employees seem limited in their potential, Shannon’s potential was unlimited. A great hire.
