About Jeffrey
Biography
Although I grew up in Altoona, PA, I have lived in Centre County since 1989...long enough for me to consider myself a native. In 1993, I married Michelle Patrick, a true native of Centre County. We enjoy State High & Penn State Football, Spikes baseball, and the numerous concerts, plays, and cultural events that Happy Valley Offers.
