Jeff was born a poor, Russian immigrant girl from the old country… GOTCHA! Now that I have your attention… Jeff grew up in Fayette, Ohio, a small town with just one stop light 35 miles west of Toledo, Ohio. He was and continues to be a very driven person, letting little stop him once he sets his mind to something. Having bought his first rental home at a sheriff’s auction as a 17-year old high school senior back in the 80’s, Jeff rarely does the “normal” thing.
For over 25 years since high school (15 of those while in college), Jeff ran and owned companies, filling roles of CFO, COO, CEO, In-House Counsel, and Turnaround Specialist, helping those companies reach record sales and profits. He also provided financial planning services, served on multiple boards, and volunteered and did pro bono work for over 25 entities. Jeff has also taught at three colleges and given estate and financial planning seminars. Having consulted with a number of companies, led and assisted with start-ups, company growth, and business turnarounds, he has finally agreed to share some of his wisdom gained from all of his unique experiences.
Jeff has an ever-growing list of credentials that no longer fit on a business card, including JD (attorney licensed in Ohio and Michigan), MBA, MHA, CMA, CBM, BS, and AA in management, marketing, computer science, finance, and law. He has also completed advanced training in real estate investing and obtained licenses in insurance/financial investing. As a real estate investor, he remains active in foreclosure/bank-owned, bankruptcy, and probate properties, residential homes, self-storage facilities, and mobile home parks. Jeff still plays competitive volleyball and golf, emcees and sings at local events, and regularly spends time with his family.

Thanks for spreading his message.
P.S.: Some of you wanted to see his Bichon-Maltese “little buddies” he mentions so he has clipped a couple shots of them below.
