Jeff served on the FIE Rules Commission from 2000-2008 and the USA Fencing High Performance Committee from 1988-2008.
Jeff was born into a fencing world, as his father Danny was a legendary figure, having competed on four United States Olympic Teams, and then refereeing at five Olympics. Jeff’s goal was to try to follow in his father’s footsteps, which he documented in his book, "Closing the Distance".
