Jeff has volunteered with CO4x4RnR since August 2020 and has been active in both dispatch and responder roles with the organization, and as a team lead on multiple recovery missions. As the Director of Dispatch, Jeff’s duties include managing the Dispatch Team and overseeing Dispatch policies and procedures, coordinating with local, state, and federal authorities, and working with other members of the Board of Directors to drive the mission and scope of the organization.

I used to travel to Colorado often for work and while doing so, I fell in love with the mountains, the views, the lifestyle and all that the state has to offer. So in April of 2018 I decided this was where I wanted to be and made the move. Almost immediately after getting settled, I started taking my jeep out to explore the back country. The love of the mountains and outdoors combined with my love of jeeping led me to want to help others venture out and do so safely. I joined the Org shortly thereafter. Now a veteran of countless recoveries, I look forward to every opportunity to be out meeting new people and making someone’s bad day just a little bit by recovering their vehicle safely.

I first moved to Colorado in 2009 and from the very first time I went out on a drive here, I knew  this is where I wanted to be. I now look forward to helping others to explore the great outdoors and sharing those experiences with my family. It is a privilege to be able to help out folks having a bad day in the mountains and at the same time getting to take in all the raw beauty this state has to offer.

I have been an avid outdoors enthusiast as long as I can remember.  My family started 4 wheeling before I was 10.  When I retired in 2020 I decided to join this wonderful organization to pass forward all the help that had been given to me over the years.  

I am a Colorado native and grew up in the outdoors: camping, hunting, fishing etc.  Jeeping has always been in my blood, but it was more of a redneck approach than rock crawler.
I came to the org after finding them on youtube; I had just put a fancy new bumper and winch on the Jeep to broaden my horizons and I was trying to educate myself.  I was instantly enthralled by it and constantly sent my husband videos and told him I wanted to do this.
6 months later after a large snow dump shut down the highways, I saw that CO4x4RnR was providing services to the community while I was just driving around like a dork. It was then that I finally finished submitting my application and began this new adventure in my life.
 It has been over 2 years now and I am still addicted to our mission and maintaining the legacy of this organization; junkie would be an understatement.
 
I bring with me to the org my special Gifts from God, an insane perseverance, a teach me attitude combined with a love for puzzles and my desire to make someone’s life a little bit better.  My day job brings a well-rounded administrative approach with secondary EMT training.

I’m a long-time resident of Colorado and enjoy exploring our great outdoors. I’ve sailed catamaran boats, free climbed rock cliffs, played hockey, and enjoy mountain unicycling as a fitness outlet. Now that I am retired, being an active part of this organization is a natural fit. It satisfies my off-road Jeeping enjoyment, my fascination with solving technical challenges, and the pure pleasure of helping other people in need. I joined the organization in June of 2021 in which I do lots of dispatching and responding. I bring to the organization my Engineering mind, fascination with problem solving, and 33 years of managing aerospace programs.
