Jeff is a writer too and his humor has been heard on NPR and his articles have appeared in more than 30 publications including Rocky Mountain Sports, Dining Out Chicago, and the prestigious Explorer Club’s Explorers Journal.

Originally from the cornfields of Iowa, he took his dry sense of humor to the desert in Albuquerque. Shortly after starting comedy he won the 2003 Great Southwest Laff Off, beating out 21 other comics, including Marc Shuter. In 2005, he made his acting debut starring in independent film, "Mismatch.com," and in 2006’s "Pink Slipped." Recently he played Nazi Soldiers in the movies, "Valkyre" and "Inglorious Basterds".
