A Public Policy analyst, he taught advanced research methods at the University of Wisconsin, and analyzed many issues related to state tax policy.

In 1987 Jeff began work for market makers at the Chicago Board Options Exchange.

Merging these quantitative techniques with specific company analysis, Jeff also generated trading ideas from sell-side analyst reports.

He has also written a series of papers on investment management, describing both quantitative methods and those related to behavioral economics.
