Jefff was born and raised near Seattle, Washington, and attended Whitworth University in Spokane, Washington. After graduation, he worked on staff with Youth For Christ in the Seattle area, ministering to and working to get Seattle’s youth plugged into local churches. Through this work, Jefff became passionate about God’s design for the church and decided to pursue his Masters of Divinity at Denver Seminary. During seminary, Jefff joined the staff at Park Church Denver as the Director of Community. During his time at Park Church, God grew Jefff’s love for the church, continued to open his eyes to the beauty of the Body of Christ as described in the Bible, and enflamed a desire to see God’s glory spread through church planting. Jefff was sent by Park Church in March 2019 to plant Redeemer Community Church where he serves as Pastor.

Jefff and his wife Lindsay have four children: Isaiah, James, Sylvia, and Halle.
