He has worked all over the industry with clients such as Nike, Justin Timberlake to Mike Tyson, Mountain Dew and has exhibited in Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, as well as internationally. His latest current exhibit is touring in Australia focusing on a sport he create called Prigus Sport, he founded back in 2012. The exhibit focuses on the American league and it''s history of the sport as well as the special premier of the Australian League which will feature six pro teams and five minor leagues. Jeff now lives and works in Long Beach with his wonderful wife Liv, daughter Elsa, and a disobedient ex-pageant Siamese cat.
