Jeff Tinklepaugh, G.I.T., Staff Geologist

Jeff joined the ZGA team in October of 2015. He works in our environmental group primarily on Phase I and Phase II Environmental Site Assessments and asbestos and lead-based paint surveys. 

Jeff began studying geology in college after being intrigued by fossils and natural history. Seeking to combine his love of the outdoors and the environment with his interest in geology, he ended up in environmental geology. He enjoys the fact that his job lets him get outside and play in the dirt, while challenging him mentally in a forensic sort of way.

Jeff gets to be involved with his main hobby, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu as the University of Washington club coach. He trains and competes under Marcelo Alonso Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Wallingford. Jeff also loves to fish and is a food and malted beverage aficionado.
