Thomas Ellingson
Account Director
When fired from your first job out of college, your immediate next step is soul-searching. Apparently, slinging radio spots door-to-door wasn't my calling, but I can live with that. It was at that moment I promised myself I’d never again choose to have a bad time.
I’ve always had a passion for being in the mountains, so to work in the marketing department of a ski resort was a dream. After I landed the Snow Reporter gig at Northstar-at-Tahoe, I packed up and headed to California. Much to my mother’s chagrin, my one winter in Tahoe has turned into more than 10 years in California.
Advertising has never stopped being fun. After four years at GQP, I’m constantly inspired, challenged, and amazed at the work we develop for our partners.
At home, my wife and I are spending all of our time learning to be new parents. This entails memorizing every restaurant in our neighborhood that delivers, changing diapers anywhere, and being three to four episodes behind in every television series we used to enjoy. But we’re having fun so who cares.
