The PINEVERGREEN brand name began as a class project when Jerome was working on his AAS degree in Visual Communications at CCBC Catonsville, Maryland, USA around the year 2000. It began as a place where he post his artwork, portfolio, stories, and poems during the early formative days of the www/internet, and has expanded into a hub for showcasing years of success in design, print, production, media, marketing, and IT industries.
