You can read his award-winning essay on financial wellness and listen to him featured on a couple podcasts here.

However, Greg also derives great personal value from his financial planning work with individuals, where he describes what he does as “helping to reveal people’s potential to create greater financial wellness for themselves.” His emphatic and caring nature enables him to quickly create feelings of trust with employees.

Greg and his wife are raising four children, the oldest of which is just beginning college, so he is intimately familiar with the ins and outs of college financial aid. His family is actively involved in their church community, where Greg has had the privilege to complete several mission trips, most recently to Romania. They live on the outskirts of Charlotte, North Carolina.

Favorite Financial Guru: Dave Ramsey

Fun Fact: “I have jumped out of a perfectly good airplane – twice. Otherwise, I’m a pretty boring guy.”
