On a more personal note Jeff Sloyer loves really anything outside. Some of his favorite activities include mountain biking, skiing, wake boarding, and hiking.

Jeff is also a home brewer, just a word of caution here, he is still learning… The last beer was a little bit of a mistake and fermented too long. The beer was supposed to be 7% and turned into 14%. Ooopies…

Additionally, Jeff is a foodie. He loves traveling and eating new food and experiencing different cultures. Additionally, the travel bug has bitten Jeff hard. He loves to travel to new places and spends a decent amount of time on airplanes. He even loves traveling so much he enjoys going through security. Weird I know right??? One day he hopes to get his own G5.

Lastly, Jeff is a big believer in the 2nd amendment and is a marksman.
