Born and raised on a small farm in central Ohio, Jerry is one of ten children raised by hard-working parents who instilled in him the values of faith, family, and perseverance. After graduating from a small county school, he joined the U.S. Army Reserves and began working in manufacturing, where he met and married his best friend. Together, they’ve built a life centered around faith, entrepreneurship, and family—raising two children and welcoming two grandchildren.
In 2000, Jerry began investing in real estate, which led to the launch of a successful insulation and contracting business in 2012—still family-owned and operated today. Over the years, he has built multiple companies and currently serves as the Founder and CEO of PrimeEthos Coaching & Consulting LLC, a leadership and personal development company dedicated to helping individuals and business owners grow with integrity and purpose.
Today, he brings many years of advanced training and licensing in life insurance and annuity strategies, with a mission to help families protect their income, build tax-efficient wealth, and leave a lasting legacy. His approach is rooted in financial education, teaching clients the 3 Ways Money Grows and The 5 Homes of Money.
Outside of business, he is passionate about supporting nonprofit causes that serve veterans and combat human trafficking. In his free time, he enjoys traveling the world and making memories with his family.
