Jeff is the co-owner of Master Supplements and US Enzymes. He has a degree in biology and chemistry.  He began his career as a virologist under a government security clearance, working with extremely virulent pathogens. As he grew to understand the purpose of the work, he left to begin a career in sales and sales management.  While working in organic agriculture in the Central Valley of CA, he met Randy Porubcan.  Both were speakers at a meeting.  Being of similar age, similar backgrounds, college in the upper midwest, they hit it off.  That was in 1995.  Randy suggested they start a business one day.  In 2002, Randy called Jeff and asked if he was ready. He said yes, and they started their business, Master Supplements.  In September of 2019, they purchased US Enzymes adding a product line of highly efficacious enzyme supplements to their line of probiotics.  Jeff can be found at:
