Born and raised in Marblehead, Massachusetts, he has always had an attachment to the ocean and Nantucket, especially after his parents purchased a summer home on the Island in 1987.

After sNantucket, Jeff headed to college to study aviation at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona Beach, Florida and Prescott, Arizona. Immediately after graduation, he learned to build homes the corporate way for Pulte Homes, one of the largest home builders in the world, in Charlotte, North Carolina. In 1993, with a degree in Aeronautical Engineering, he returned to the Island to work for Colgan Air and to build custom homes for Jeff Toner, the former owner of Furniture-N-Things.

Not soon after his return did he pursue a rare opportunity to work on Wall Street as an Equity Trader for Oppenheimer & Co. After nearly seven years of success in a career of high financial stakes, Jeff decided to call Nantucket his home. Since 1999, Jeff has worked in real estate for Hamilton Heard, Jr. and has been the Project Manager for Amos Construction, owned by the late Dan Ropitzky.

The Turner family lives in a historic home they saved from demolition. It was moved in pieces from Quaise to Miacomet in 2001, and restored with patience and appreciation.
