I have had the pleasure of working with Jeff for the past year. I find Jeff to be extremely knowledgeable about the comprehensive needs of the older population. Jeff’s passion is infectious! His ability to see the big picture and create cross sector collaboration is a true gift. The state of Kentucky is lucky to have an advocate working this hard to build healthy communities where every member can thrive.

Jeff is a charismatic leader with an eye for long term results. A team builder who was open minded, listened to his team, shared credit for accomplishments and kept the team current on status of goals and objectives. Professional and a pleasure to work with.

Body Recall

Jeff is a catalyst for getting people together to discuss solutions to the big problems of our day. For the last several months, he has been hosting a series of shows on one of our area radio stations, bringing people from diverse backgrounds together for stimulating discussions on solutions to various issues, and, more importantly, helping them to find connections that build synergy. I have been struck how after nearly every program, the guests want to stay in the studio to continue the discussion long after the station has moved to the next event. Jeff’s remarkable ability to find common ground among people of various backgrounds is quite striking. Jeff is what I would call a community catalyst.

Wallingford Communications

Jeff is an excellent columnist and writes about topics/subjects that hit home with our readers. He relates every topic back to each individual and how it affects them personally. He has covered a wide variety of topics and always provides statistics and other information to back up his point.
