Marketing Assistant Jacqueline Marzan
Jacqueline Marzan brings a unique blend of creativity, discipline, and empathy to her role as Marketing Assistant at Sir Grout South Sound. With a background in fine arts and a professional journey that spans design, teaching, healthcare, and even pastry-making, Jacqueline thrives on creative problem-solving and genuine human connection.
Her proudest achievement? Serving as a Letterer for Image, a lifelong dream for this comic book enthusiast.
When she's not excelling in her role, Jacqueline enjoys martial arts, reading, and occasionally reminiscing about her days doing aerial silks. She's also a dedicated volunteer, serving her community as a poll worker, participating in Seniors Fight Back events, and mentoring at Sampaguita, a rock band camp for Filipina/x girls.
Fun Fact: Jacqueline once had dental fillings done without numbing agents to avoid missing out on dinner with her sister—because, as she says, "Cake is life."
Inspiration: If Jacqueline could share a meal with any historical figure, it would be Maria Ylagan Orosa, the Filipina inventor and WWII resistance hero who used her culinary skills to serve her community.
At Sir Grout South Sound, Jacqueline hopes to bring efficiency and ethical collaboration to the team, all while working toward her personal goal of becoming a full-time comic book letterer. After a long day, you might find her watching a sunset—or screaming into the void, depending on how the day went.
