Jerry was born in a huge, pink, Army hospital overlooking Honolulu, Hawaii. Then his life got really interesting. After studying at a series of universities from Austin, Texas, to Strasbourg, France, to Washington, DC, Jerry began his PR career as a senior political and communications advisor to the Japanese government on public affairs and constituency relations. Today Jerry heads the Strategic Planning Group at Brodeur, which includes the agency's digital communications services. His hobbies include running, golf, and martial arts, all of which, he claims, have prepared him to work “persuasively” with clients.

My greatest indulgence is:
Writing my blog, Jerry’s Juice Bar and shamelessly plugging Jerry’s Juice Bar at every opportunity.

If I had a motto, it would be:
“Discretion is the price of freedom.” That’s why my answers to these questions are so short.

If I could put together a dinner of all of my favorite foods, it would include:
Oysters on the half shell as an appetizer, prime rib with whipped garlic potatoes and creamed spinach as an entrée, no dessert. A fine, large bottle of claret.

The six fantasy guests I’d share that meal with would be:
Dad, Mom, my two brothers and one sister. I’d be the sixth.
