Jonathan is an art director currently at BBH Singapore navigating and growing in the world of advertising. His work has^n’t earned the recognition at prestigious international award shows like Cannes, CLIOS, D&AD, and One Show... ^{but he hopes they will one day (haha)}

In his career, he has hosted an art academy for Riot Games, made a retro combat game for an award show, and possibly the biggest dick joke ever (for men’s health).

In his free time, he has sold out blind boxes filled with random personal items, created tourism guides for the neighborhood he grew up in, and published zines for his love for outdoor cooking.
