Here in the desert, he’s covered everything from earthquakes, power outages and flooding, to our seasonal wildfires and occasional sand storms.

Jeff and his wife, Marian, are proud parents of a baby boy named Joshua. They also like to stay active in a number of community programs including reading to kids, helping with the annual Tour de Palm Springs bike ride, and Animal Samaritans S.P.C.A..

In his spare time, Jeff and family like to take in all the desert has to offer. That includes hiking the desert’s many hillside trails, golfing, shopping and dining out and playing with Joshua and their two beautiful cats.
