Jeff transitioned to southwest Florida from Wisconsin in January 2019 and really enjoys the challenges and rewards of the athletic training profession. In his free time, Jeff enjoys the amazing blue sky and sunshine that Florida has compared what he is used to in Wisconsin. Every day is a blessing, so time at the beach, getting back into snorkeling, doing home improvements outside and even going for a bike ride or run are appreciated.
