After a failed attempt pursuing a career as a fire fighter, Neufeld began his BFA at the University of Manitoba in Winnipeg and finished at the University of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon. In 2006, he completed his MFA at Concordia University. He now lives and works on an acreage near the town of Osler, Saskatchewan.
