Prior to establishing Armstrong Capital Jeff worked his way up through the ranks at various supermarkets to the night manager position for 9 years and worked the graveyard shift for the last 4 years of that. Since he worked at night, he had to do something with his days. So, Jeff had several other businesses before starting Armstrong Capital including a landscaping and gardening business called the “Caretaker’s” and a handyman business called “Handy Dandy Fixer Upper”!
Jeff is 57 years old. He owns a bass boat and enjoys competing in bass fishing tournaments. He also enjoys doing other activities with his family including snow skiing, camping, golf, biking, water skiing, swimming and surfing (not to mention traveling and the outdoors). When he is not watching his girls dance or in fashion shows, Jeff can often be found on a mountain, beach or lake.
