Jeff has had an interest in fiction since young adulthood, always purchasing the latest Stephen King creation the moment it hit the shelves. He yearned to study the craft, yet personal and professional obligations curtailed such activities. Raising three children and advancing through the ranks in the Information Technology world left sparse time for artistic endeavors. However, he always knew that his future would include writing. Since his children have grown to a reasonably independent age, he has been able to study creative writing. Jeff is currently an Information Systems Manager for a major Insurance/Financial corporation. He resides in northwest New Jersey with his two sons, and on the Eastern Shore of Maryland with his lovely wife.

Jeff was first published at the age of 11 when his space exploration article was featured on the cover of "Young Citizen", a national scholastic magazine. Author of “Emergence Of Hope”, a novel published by PublishAmerica in March, 2003.

Major influences are Stephen King, James Patterson, David Baldacci, and Dean Koontz. "Emergence Of Hope" has received stellar reviews from Midwest Book Review (look under Reviewer's Bookwatch, June 2003 issue, Diana's Bookshelf), Denise's Pieces (look under Mainstream Fiction), and the July issue of Myshelf.com. An article about Jeff and "Emergence of Hope" has appeared in the Arts & Entertainment section of the Westfield Leader (May 8 issue), and in the Local section of the New Jersey Herald (July 9 issue). Jeff is currently working on his second novel, a murder mystery/thriller set in the resort town of Ocean City, MD.
