Jeff wrote the National Board Certification exam in 1994 and has held his certification ever since. He was elected to the Board of the Hearing Instrument Specialists Society in 1995. He was appointed to serve on the former Board of Hearing Aid Dealers and Consultants, serving six years on the Board, two as Complaints Committee chair.

Jeff and his wife Sharon live in Victoria where they spend their time with their grand daughter, as well as walking their dog, and going to movies and concerts.
