Jeff Allen comes to News 13 from Lexington, Kentucky.

After reporting and anchoring for a couple of small stations in college, Jeff worked behind the camera as an assignment editor and producer at WHAS-TV in Louisville. Jeff then moved to the mountains of eastern Kentucky, where he worked as a bureau reporter and weekend anchor for WYMT-TV.

Jeff then moved closer to home and became a reporter for WLEX-TV in Lexington. While working for the NBC affiliate, he was awarded by the Kentucky News Photographers Association for his work as a video journalist.
