Jerry Simmons

Operations Manager / Lead Developer

Jerry was a computer geek before it was popular or profitable. He has been passionate about getting online ever since he was a teenager connecting to local “Bulletin Board Systems” with a 2400 baud modem. He enjoys talking about and working with all things related to technology, especially when it helps others experience the benefits and joys of our amazing digital tools.

Jerry became part of the Monterey Premier team in 2016 to help with customer support and marketplace operations. He enjoys the challenge of troubleshooting, problem solving and creating custom solutions for clients. He does his best work when a Star Wars movie is playing in the background.

Outside of “the office” you will usually find Jerry spending time with his wife Kim or hanging out at the church where he is a pastor in Southern California.
