About Jeff
With an MBA and twelve years of consumer marketing experience with companies such as Colgate Palmolive, Nestle and Warner Brothers, Jeff knows what sells. He's applied this marketing expertise to buying, renovating and selling homes, enjoying average annual residential real estate sales in excess of $18 million during his tenure with Sotheby's International Realty in Pasadena, California (2001-2010), and has quickly become a top producer at Windermere Professional Partners in Tacoma.Jeff now specializes in residential real estate sales in Tacoma, University Place, Lakewood and Gig Harbor and prides himself on delivering highly personalized service, working with a limited number of clients at one time. Jeff takes the time to make sure he understands his client's wants and needs, providing each with a customized plan to buy or sell their home. Importantly, clients are never delegated to an assistant or a less experienced agent.

Jeff has been purchasing historic properties in Tacoma since 2005 and owns two homes in the North End.

Jeff is consistently ranked among the top riders in the nation in his specialty event, Amateur Western Pleasure, and he currently serves as President Elect on the board of directors for the Washington State Quarter Horse Association.
