Jeff has worked in the personal computer software industry for 20+ years, holding various management positions within Supply Chain Operations– currently as Strategic Initiatives Program Manager with Adobe Systems Incorporated.

Jeff has a strong personal interest/passion for eliminating global poverty, which emanates from his love of family, his Christian faith, and his business experience – all of which provide a balanced framework for pursuing the goal of eliminating poverty. As a pragmatic first step toward this end, Jeff has recently completed co-authoring the book “Our Day to End Poverty”, which was published in June 2007 by Berrett-Koehler Publishers.

Jeff has been involved in his community in many capacities: teaching Sunday School classes, coaching youth soccer and baseball teams, as well as numerous volunteer service opportunities, including: food banks, street “clean-ups”, non-profit pro-bono consulting, animal shelter/welfare, house-building mission trip, and Board service for various organizations.
