While he’s often described as a to-the-point, straight shooter, there is more to Jeff than meets the eye. He takes his role as security systems team leader very seriously; he recognizes the importance of safety within a building. Jeff cares about creating systems that will last for the lifespan of his clients’ buildings and that will also benefit those who rely on its security systems to remain effective, efficient, and transparent. Jeff oversees the entire security department and ensures that the security component of all projects is integrated within the overall technology system.

If he can’t get out on a sailboat, Jeff likes to take a journey with a great author. It doesn’t have to be a rainy afternoon for him to curl up on the couch with a good book. A day alone to escape in a good historical biography, military history, or historical fiction is so rare he will take one when he can get it.

Wind hitting his sails gets Jeff’s blood pumping. He thrives on grabbing the best position in competition for the same sweet spot against 30 other sailboats. With more than 30 years’ experience sail racing, Jeff can out-strategize any newcomer. From the San Francisco Bay to the coast of Mexico, he loves any excuse to spend a day on the water.

Nature Enthusiast

When the summer months approach, Jeff and his family gear up for camping trips. Whether it’s local spots at Mount Diablo or further afield at Yosemite, Jeff and his family love being in nature. Hiking trails, roasting marshmallows, and stargazing are moments he savors with his kids as they become old enough to appreciate it.
