Tom Jeffrey

During a creative writing course in college my class was asked to pick a product and write a short article about it. I chose a car, specifically a Saab. The next day the professor held up my paper and said, "Tom, you made we want to drive this car." With those words, I would steer my way toward a career in advertising. Over the past twenty years I have had the opportunity to develop campaigns for leading brands that include HP, Jeopardy, Wheel of Fortune, Sunoco, CertainTeed, Days Inn, Ramada Inn and Aplus Mini Markets. In 2005, I co-founded Hook, a hard-charging creatively driven advertising agency in Charleston, South Carolina. In 2010, Hook was named Southeast Small Agency of the Year by Advertising Age. We have developed a reputation for thinking big and outside comfort zones. Outside of the ad world, I have a beautiful wife and two energetic boys. I help coach youth baseball and soccer. I'm a certified diver. Love the outdoors and monkeys.
