Thats right, he went to eastman for his undergrad with Paul Katz and came to Rice when Katz was bought out by Rice (he was later replaced by Lynn Harrel while I was in my masters there)
It is a very small world indeed. We probably hve a bunch of friends in common from the violists and cellists that came with the two Katz (Martha and Paul) when they were hired by Rice.
I ran into Jeff in the corridors at work a few years back when he just started out with Kronos. Just came out of the practice room at work and bumped into him. Weird thing as we had lockers next to each other back in school, I was a little confused as he was kind of on the wrong continent.

He seems so happy with the gig and I got the feeling the group really appreciates their new member quite a bit. He is a total pro and very relaxed at the same time.
