Unsure if unlimited energy sources would actually play out for the better, he moved on to become a scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) developing global warming software models. He earned his Masters in physics at the University of Colorado, Boulder at the Joint Institute of Laboratory Astrophysics (JILA).

Jeff moved into more direct public engagement as producer of a nationally syndicated radio show, Alternative Radio, that explored critical social and environment issues. He later became a producer for Free Speech TV (FSTV), a nationally syndicated television station.

As an experiential educator and outdoor guide with years of teaching experience, Jeff understands that significant, real change takes time. It requires an engaged experience rarely found in most education approaches.

Jeff has created a highly successful track record leading internet marketing efforts. Over a period of 5 years, Jeff applied his experience in education and technology to the travel industry, non-profits, e-commerce and previously unknown niche markets. His specialty was an iterative approach to conversion optimization.
