Jerome got his start working in the furniture field at the age of 16 in his native France. He began his career in a small workshop that built custom furniture, custom kitchens, and restoring and refinishing antique furniture. From there he was hired by a bigger shop and was responsible for managing production on larger projects, building and installing furniture, displays and fixtures for such luxury brands as Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior and Christian Lacroix.

Jerome then went to achieve a mastery in fine furniture production and carpentry and began teaching Woodworking and Computer Aided Design at the University level for 5 years in France.

Upon moving to America, Jerome decided to continue his woodworking career by taking a position in a small shop, beginning with stripping furniture and quickly moving up the ranks into the custom furniture and refinishing end of the business. He eventually moved on and with a partner, started and ran a successful custom furniture repair, refinishing and restoration company for over 10 years.
