Hope With Help

Jeffrey is the owner of Printing Services of Nevada and minority owner of Jose and Associates Screen Shop which is the parent company of Miller's Jackets and Uniforms. He studied International Relations at Mankato State University from 1990 - 1994 with an emphasis on the Middle East, Russia, and the other 14 republics of the former Soviet Union. Jeffrey, who has coached 3 high school sports every year for nearly 7 years, saw the importance in what Carrie Reynolds was doing in spreading awareness about suicide. He supported Carrie's sign campaign financially both personally and through his business. In the early months of the pandemic, he decided to create Motivation United, Inc. to spread awareness about suicide and mental health.

She is a mother of two wonderful kids, one grown and one still in school. She spent years as an active part of  Boy Scouts of America and as a softball high school coach. She is currently Vice President of her daughter's gymnastic booster club and a very active parent in her school. Motivation United, and the inspirational yard signs that are associated with it, would not be possible if it weren't for Carrie. She is the creator of the signs and the one who coordinated their distribution throughout the Reno/Sparks community.

She is currently attending the University of Denver to obtain a Masters of Social Work with an emphasis in Health, Equity, and Wellness.
