Jeff has spent virtually all of his working life in the collision repair industry, beginning with 20 years as an autobody repair technician in British Columbia, Canada, followed by a distinguished 14-year period as a Red Seal Certified Autobody Repair Instructor  at Okanagan College in Kelowna, BC. At this  institution he rose to the rank of Department Chair in his final two years and helped raise the department’s interprovincial red-seal pass rate to almost 100%, while developing strong international programs with companies including Toyota. Mainly to be closer to his family in Alberta, he most recently returned to the business side of collision repair at the senior management level in estimating, estimate review, repair planning and general shop management.

Jeff has always been a strong advocate of the Wedge Clamp System, both as a user and as an instructor. “My team and customers can rest assured that any information or recommendations I provide them is sound – fully researched or vetted by me,” he says. “If I don’t have a 100 percent belief in a product or idea, I would never present it.”

All the more reason why we are so delighted to have Jeff representing Wedge Clamp as well as our Nitroheat and Eclipse brands to our many customers, suppliers and distributors across North America.
