JERRY NORCIA
As Chairman and CEO of DTE, Jerry Norcia is committed to improving lives with energy – literally – by powering local homes and businesses , and by helping people in need in those communities.
Born in Toronto to Italian immigrants, Jerry learned and perfected his English in school. From his parents, he learned to respect everyone no matter what they do in life or where they come from, and that hard work, determination and integrity are the keys to being a good person. Jerry graduated from the University of Windsor with an engineering degree, then joined DTE in 2002, moved to Michigan in 2006 and became CEO in 2014.
Jerry’s vision for the future of DTE includes net-zero climate goals, a smart and resilient energy grid, and increased wind and solar energy in Michigan. He has changed the way that people pay for their electricity and gas, helping those in need before their need becomes too great. In addition to his great career success, Jerry has volunteered his time, using his experience and knowledge to help all sorts of organizations and people, including helping the children of the Yeshiva Beth Yehudah get the kind of education that changed his life. Jerry and his wife Josie have three adult children and four grandchildren.

The Yeshiva is
more than a school.
It’s at the heart of the Metro Detroit Jewish community.
Serving 1,400+ children and 1,000+ adults each week in a rich array of community and educational programming, Yeshiva Beth Yehudah is more than an educational institution: it’s a movement.
It’s where bright, curious minds of all ages and backgrounds come to warm their souls and grow in their love of Jewish learning. It’s where Detroit’s Jewish community joins together — in unity, growth, and love.
