He's a tech veteran, stand-up comedian, and conference speaker who founded IT Misfits — the live comedy show and communication training community where technical professionals find their voice, build confidence, and occasionally bring the house down. He eventually landed in Phoenix with strong feelings about incident response, enterprise infrastructure, and why the funniest people in any room are almost always in IT.

Jerry has performed stand-up comedy across the United States, hosted live shows at venues from LA to Phoenix to Austin, spoken at tech conferences and corporate events, and coached software engineers, data scientists, IT managers, and cybersecurity professionals through writing and performing their first real set in front of a live audience. His material is pulled straight from real life — the war stories, the absurdities, the moments that are only funny in hindsight — which means his audiences don't just laugh, they recognize themselves.

He built IT Misfits because tech is a grind, and the people grinding through it deserve to be heard, to laugh, and to take up more space than their job title usually allows.

The mic is always open. He just had to build the stage first.
