thoughtful works of heart

For over a decade, Jerome has shaped strategies into stories that move people. His work spans ATL, BTL, and digital across categories—from tech and finance to FMCG and pet care. (Yes, even dog pills.)

He believes people think with their heads, but connect through the heart. Every brief is met with empathy, insight, and a clear intent to resonate.

A former Creative Director and General Manager, Jerome now operates as an independent professional providing end-to-end marketing solutions. Whether crafting a master brand narrative or leading complex IMC campaigns, he blends creative strategy with tactical execution to deliver work that simply works.

A fan of puns and purposeful writing, he’s lenient on grammar but not on bad ads. Off the clock, he’s reading, doom-scrolling, or bingeing a BL series or RuPaul’s Drag Race.

Campaigner (ENFP-A). Nature lover. Dad to Frances McBeagle.

Freelance, fractional, or full-time—whatever the “F” you need, he’s your guy.
