It’s pretty strange to refer to myself in third person, but since most bios are done this way… here’s a brief introduction to who Jessie is. Let’s start off with a fun fact – one of her biggest fears is public speaking, and like any other sane person, she decided to pursue a career where she could avoid confronting it entirely… or not.
8 years in the world of advertising and not only has she confronted (and somewhat conquered) that fear, she has also fought alongside brands such as KFC, FairPrice, Starbucks, Samsung, Philips and Netflix. She feels slightly self-conscious (but extremely thankful) mentioning this, but her work has been noted by organisations such as Spikes, One Show, Adfest and Hall of Fame, and have been featured on Clio, The Drum, Adweek, Campaign Asia and CLEO.
When you peel back the layers, you’ll come to realise that Jessie’s pretty introverted, socially awkward and honestly, her sense of humour can be a little cheesy for some. She finds it easier talking to animals than humans, finds solace in calligraphy and genuinely loves Rom-coms. Despite the fact that she’s easily frightened by most things (like butterflies, heights, ghosts… the list goes on), as long as she’s consciously choosing to fight the good fight, she will continue conquering all the fears that come her way.
If you're ready for some cheese, or just to find out more about her journey, do drop her a note.
