Simmons Nissan

Brian's automotive career began over 18 years ago as a salesman. He has served with distinction across all segments critical to dealer success including finance, service and management in both new and pre-owned vehicles. His "Customer First" philosophy has served his customers well over the years and it's a concept he insists all his employees adhere too. When he's not overseeing the day to day operations at Simmons Nissan, he is a devoted Father and Husband. His two daughters, Amber and Meagan are promising student athletes and on most weekends he's on the road supporting them in their endeavors or planning family trips to the beach. Of course behind every successful man is a strong and supportive woman. In addition to being his confidant and best friend, Brian's wife of 15 years, Dawn manages the home while pursuing her degree in education through East Carolina University. The next time you're in the market for a new or pre-owned vehicle why not come by and see Brian and experience the Simmons Nissan difference!

Gary's Father, Jack Simmons founded Simmons Nissan over 40-years-ago and today it is the oldest Nissan franchise in North Carolina. Jack instilled in Gary a strong work ethic and philosophy of treating your customers like family. Gary worked his way up through the business doing everything from washing cars to selling them, to finally overseeing the operations of the store as a whole. When he's not at the store he enjoys time with his wife Linda, and sons Wesley and Wayne on their farm in Pilot Mountain. Like his Father before him, Gary treats all his customer's like family and it's a big part of why Simmons Nissan has been around for so long and why it will continue to be for many years to come!

Previous to that he served eight years as a Combat Correspondent in the U.S. Marine Corps. He made the career switch in pursuit of a challenging career in which he could deal directly with people. He believes the secret to success as a salesman is to educate the customer so they can make an informed decision.

Hi, I'm Jamie Pack from Mt. Airy. My goal is to make your experience here a more personable one, so you might want to know a few things about me. I have over 18 years in the industry. During that time, I married my lovely wife, Shannon, and we have three children. I've always lived in Mt. Airy. I've visited many other cities and countries, but you can't beat the small-town atmosphere here! In my time in the car business, I've served in many roles but my favorite place to work is in sales where I get to personally interact with you, the customer! Talking with the folks and finding out how I can meet their needs is the niche' I seem to fit best. For years I have driven and been very pleased with Nissan, so I'm proud to represent the brand.
