Jeff is a nationally syndicated writer. Mostly about relationships, dating, and culture. He is the author of The Maxims of Manhood, a collection of essays about being a guy.
He’s the founding editor of The Plunge—a site about bachelor parties, relationships, and how to be a groom. (Jeff has never been a groom.) His column is syndicated to The Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times, Baltimore Sun, Miami Herald, Detroit Free Press, and network of 100+ newspapers.
Jeff’s writing has appeared in print or online at GQ, Esquire, Glamour, The New York Daily News, The New York Post, VH1, and MTV. He’s the former Editor-in-Chief of the nightlife site Clubplanet.com. He just might be the only person on the planet to have written for both GQ and The Knot.
As a guest on The Tyra Banks Show, he served as Tyra’s “nightlife guru.” He’s a recurring guest on the women’s lifestyle show Better TV, providing the guy’s counterpoint.
His celebrity interviews (80+) include George Clooney, Ellen Page, Matt Damon, Jamie Foxx, and everyone from Ice Cube to Woody Allen.
Jeff is also a screenwriter. Look for his Apatow-esque comedy, Credit Score, to hit theaters, at the latest, by 2034.
