About Us

EEM is a family business owned and operated by Tim and Joni Pendley. 

Tim Pendley

Tim has a wide range of experience on his resume that starts with a career as a licensed professional in the plumbing industry, which provided financial support for the family while achieving a Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Texas A&M University in 2006.  After graduation, Tim spent two years in the mechanical piping design field working for Mustang Engineering in Houston, TX.  When the opportunity arose to move the Pendleys back near their own families and to start adding to the lineage, Tim and Joni decided to make that move.  Tim found an opportunity as a Maintenance and Reliability Engineer, which later led to experience as a Capital Project Engineer, with Westlake Chemical Corporation in Longview TX.  While working for Westlake Chemical, Tim also acquired a professional engineering license, specific to Mechanical Engineering, in 2012.  Tim accepted a position with Kinder Morgan as a project manager/field engineer in late 2012 with the intent of gaining field experience in the pipeline industry.  Tim spent 8 years working on integrity and capital projects for Kinder Morgan, where the experience and knowledge gained allowed Tim and Joni to start EEM in 2021. 

Joni Pendley

Joni has a wide range of experiences that greatly contribute to supporting EEM.  After receiving a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas at Tyler, Joni worked as an office manager for a Chiropractic office in College Station, TX to allow Tim to focus on finalizing his degree.  After moving to Houston, Joni worked as an office manager to support the corporate office of a group of dental practices.  This opportunity led to a promotion to manage a single location.  After deciding to start a family and move back the East Texas area, Joni took a position with AgPro Systems as the lead production manager for manufacture of their product lines.  Joni’s experience through the years leads very well into supporting EEM’s needs as a business from an office management, efficiency, and production standpoint.
