Instructor Zim
Jeremy Zimmer
I am the lead instructor and owner. While enjoying my hobby with firearms, I discovered a passion to teach others. My training includes learning under some of the best instructors in the business. After obtaining my criminal justice degree, I focused on family. I have three awesome kids, and a wonderful wife. They have been a tremendous inspiration and support that has allowed me to pour into others.
