Jeff was raised in a huge family in Clarkston, Michigan. He has 13 aunts and uncles and they are all very close. Jeff is a master electrician by trade, but he has worked with his uncles in all the trades.
Jeff loves woodworking and carpentry. Jeff has 2 little boys. He looks forward to spending time with them and teaching them the trades as they grow up.
Jeff had been a long time fan of Madison’s line of Smart Tools. He was the proud owner of two Pull-its, and he used them often. Jeff was on a job at a hospital and he needed to pull some MC cable and Cat6 wire over a drop ceiling. As Jeff started the job, he realized that there was a chance that the MC cable might grab and damage the t-grid, and that the Cat6 cable might get caught in the corners of the grid and get damaged. He was aware of the old school solution of using an old scrap of carpet in the corner, or even some scrap cardboard, but he knew there was a better way. It was at that moment that Jeff thought of using a tool similar to the Madison Pull-it, but he needed a way to mount it to the ceiling without damaging the grid. Jeff then brought his idea to the Sparks Innovation Center to bring his product idea to life.
