Author Bio:
At six years old, Jeff’s novella, Hoppy, an epic hero’s journey of a bunny in desperate search of a carrot, was critically acclaimed school-wide (“Gold Star” ~ Mrs. Wheeler).

In college, Jeff switched from novels to theater (with a Brit Lit minor, just in case), writing in a sketch comedy troupe with a bunch of drama nerds.

It wasn’t until 2008 that Jeff—a lifelong movie fan—met a ragtag bunch of Florida filmmakers. After learning the trade, he switched to screenwriting following a bizarre accident trying to plug in a C-stand.
