A part of the Island community for 25 years, Jeff has managed and revitalized a number of Captiva and Sanibel associations and their rental programs over the years.

For over a decade he has been implementing his proprietary and ever-evolving standard operating procedures to bring the premier management services available to the marketplace. Jeff understands the most integral part of Kingfisher is the individuals who implement and personify the values, goals and purpose of Kingfisher to bring about world-class management. Jeff enjoys sailing and realized on his most recent trans-Atlantic crossing (UK to Caribbean) that sailing and owning a business has many similarities as you must rely on your knowledge, experience, and team to accomplish great things. His simple goal is to be the best vacation management company on the Islands. An award Kingfisher won in 2018..
