Before accepting the position as Director of Development for the College of Pharmacy & Pharmaceutical Sciences,  he was the Director of Development for the Ohio Can!

In 2006, Jeff began his development experience by founding the Miracle League of Northwest Ohio, a non-profit organization dedicated to raising funds for a barrier-free baseball field for kids with special needs. In May of 2009, the field was opened and Jeff led volunteers who successfully raised nearly $400,000 to cover costs associated with construction of this unique baseball field.
