GEO Consultants is an environmental services and geological engineering firm created to serve clients with environmental, energy and water supply needs.
As do many entrepreneurs, Jeff and Sharon left successful careers with large technology-based firms to start GEO. They are both originally from Carmi, Illinois and have made their home in the Paducah area since graduating from the University of Missouri, Rolla, in 1989.
The Douthitts have four lovely children..15 year old twins Ollie and Claire, 13 year old Lilly, and 3 year old AnnaMaria who joined the family from Guatemala as an infant.
Jeff and Sharon tell us the best thing about being entrepreneurs is getting to work with some interesting people..from their clients to their employees.
Incidentally, they were both involved in the Think Tank which was the origin of EntrePaducah...and Sharon served as a charter member of our Advisory Board.
Jeff and Sharon Douthitt are super people and we are proud to recognize them as our November Entrepreneurs of the Month!
