Jeff East - Agency Principal
Fax: (239) 362-0011
Jeff & Allison came to Florida after living in several states while Jeff was with Sears. He was promoted multiple times and as a result they lived in KY, DC, IL, TN, WV & IL. It was while running the Sears Grand store in IL that he was recruited by WCI to Florida. Jeff spent 5 years with WCI until all sales operations were suspended, which gave him a chance to reflect.
Shortly after leaving WCI, Jeff spoke with Kevin about opportunities with Allstate. He joined Allstate and shortly after was asked to take over the Sales Management and Marketing roles. This gave him a great opportunity to learn the industry. It is with that knowledge and confidence he and Kevin decided to open their own Agency.
Florida is now home and the East family loves the weather and everything the Florida lifestyle offers. Jeff enjoys running and spending time at the beach with Allison and the kids. Their kids don’t know what cold, gray days are and he hopes to keep it that way.
