I consider Jeff one of the forefathers of our current AIA Celebration of Architecture, from which he launched his event design and planning business, Clink it Design. He was instrumental as Community Director in reshaping our Design Awards program into what we see today by bringing fun, atmosphere, and his design sensibilities to this important annual event for our Chapter."]]],[1,"p",[[0,[],0,"Jeff has not only been active in all things AIA CNY, but he has also served a valuable role as a Board Member to many local organizations, including Habitat for Humanity, Nascentia Health Charitable Foundation, and more. Jeff\u2019s design contributions to the healthcare community and voice in that community have been great and recently resulted in his new position as a Project Manager at SUNY Upstate Medical University Design and Construction."]]],[1,"p",[[0,[],0,"Finally, I have watched Jeff elevate his career in the AIA from the AIA CNY Board to the State level of our organization as a Director on the AIA NYS Board to the first ever, statewide VP of Emerging Professionals and then the VP of Communication \u0026 Public Awareness. Having served under some of these committees and on this Board myself, I am well aware of the huge accomplishment and feat that this is. I have no doubt that we can continue to expect to see great things in the future from Jeff\u2019s career at all levels of the AIA."]]],[1,"p",[[0,[],0,"I not only admire Jeff for the contributions he has made to AIA CNY, but also for his tenacity as a fellow entrepreneur. Jeff goes after the things he wants to accomplish and it\u2019s commendable.
