About

I am a technology professional with an eclectic history of software development, systems architecture, consulting, CRM implementation, support, electronics tinkering , hand-drawn lettering, block printing, and singing on stage with Carol Burnett. My aim is to work alongside committed and excellent business leaders, engineers, designers, business leaders, and customers to do something enjoyable, meaningful, and nearly-impossible (occasionally, or regularly if you prefer).

The 5th street market & nursery

2 roles

Professional development

Sep 2023 – Sep 2024 · 1 yr

I invested 12 wonderful months with my life partner (and business partner), Samantha Hampton, to build The 5th Street Market & Nursery. While taking a break from day-to-day technology, I instead invested my technology skills in the small business world, applying Gen AI, agents, and automation to build a 5-Star, growing Nursery business in Small Town, Texas.

Co-Owner

May 2022 – Present · 4 yrs

The 5th Street Market & Nursery was founded in 2021 by three native Texans: Jeffrey, Samantha (born in Clifton, Texas), and Sissy. Over the years, we’ve developed a passion for plants and entrepreneurship. We wanted to bring something unique to our community, so we opened The 5th Street Market & Nursery to provide affordable and quality products to our friends and neighbors.
We believe in the power of plants to transform lives and homes. We’ve seen the beauty that native plants can bring to any indoor or outdoor space, and we’re dedicated to providing the highest quality products and experience for our customers. We also love visiting and learning from our community, and our knowledgeable and experienced staff are here to help you find the perfect plants for your garden and home.
