Jeff's journey began as a child growing up in southwestern Pennsylvania.

After serving in the United States Army, Jeff began a career as a blue-collar worker at a large corporation.
Since that start, he was promoted 10 times, and achieved advanced leadership roles at a Fortune 500 company.

During his pursuit of success, there has been no greater thrill than making those around him better. What started as a dream to change his own life soon became a dream to help change the lives of others.

Jeff realized that being a leader was a way to accomplish this.
He wants his legacy to be that I made a positive impact on multitudes of people by helping them realize their fullest potential.
