Filmmaker | Portland , USA

BioGraphy

At the age of 5 Jeff was found to be ambidextrous, but feeling this to be weird he was subsequently forced to use only his right hand by his kindergarten teacher, and thusly remains mostly right handed today.

 

Jeff graduated from Pacific University with a degree in Business Management but also attended the University of Oregon where he began his studies into film, acting, theatre and performance.

 

Jeff’s love of entertaining, his zeal for originality, and his ability to make gold from lead in practically any situation make him a natural producer. He has an eye for marketing, for presentation, for culture and for the human mind. He is persuasive, frugal and an unspoken leader, especially when things are difficult.

 

Fervent, straightforward and brilliant, Jeff constantly surprises people with how much one can accomplish on pure passion and determination alone. Jeff brings inventive thinking, conscious achievement, constant innovation and a natural ability for management to his projects. He thinks of things others have never considered and makes the impossible possible.

 

Jeff is a photographer as well and some of his work can be seen on the Wild Line Films website.
