Who am I ?

Hi ! I'm Jerlle.

Jerlle is pronounced as Jerrl. I gave myself that name, because ever since I was young, I wanted to be unique. Nearly my entire life, I have been doodling on papers, notebooks, thoughts that I want to keep. I played my piano exam pieces, improvised them and added more quavers and volume to some parts, and with loads of emotions. I had to beautify things that are not pleasing to my eye. I am a keeper. I keep lots of things for remembrance. I observe people in the train, the bus stops, at the same time, the way they wear their clothes, the way the express themselves. I love traveling, and of course shopping. I have a record of luggage overload because I cannot help buying stuff that caught my eye. I design my own line of accessories and co-own a blog shop which has a whole line of apparels and self-designed t-shirts.


All in all, I love creativity. Things that beautify and catches attention. Colours plays a huge part in portraying emotions. There is no right or wrong idea, the most important part is whether the message gets across to your target audience. I am a designer but when I get influenced by a message from an advertisement, I call that good advertising. I believe that advertising manipulates consumers' mind.

I am a fresh advertising graduate, but very keen to learn. Do drop me an email at ellrej@gmail.com if you find my informal introduction of myself a little interesting.

Regards,
Jerlle
