He had been part of a number of commercial shoots and runway shows. His specialty was modeling for underway brands. Following his death, a number of his friends and fans paid tributes on social media, many commenting on his last Instagram post, which was posted just six days before his untimely demise.

Vice president of Men’s Design, Kris Haigh, wrote: “I met you many years ago in NY. You never failed to bring an upbeat energy every time I saw you. We never know what people are really going through. I will use this as a reminder to ask people how they are more even when they seem happy on the outside. RIP Jeff.”

“My sweet Jeff. We were just making plans, you were just making jokes, we were just daydreaming about Europe together. It’s so hard to process, to think that there won’t be a next time. There’s such a void. I know deep down you know that. You know we loved you so much and always wanted the best for you, the same way you wanted it for everyone else. I’m going to miss you, your smile, your texts, your dancing so so so much,” another of his followers wrote.
