At NPPC, Jeff’s role is to build trust in the organization among a wide spectrum of industry influencers, including retail grocery stores, foodservice chains, packers and processors.

Jeff earned his B.B.A. from the University of Iowa and has an M.B.A. from Vanderbilt University.

Jeff strives to have at least one serving of bacon each day and encourages others to do the same.
