For Greg, coaching is about assisting you to improve the quality of your life or business by co-creating brave and vulnerable spaces where partnership can occur without any agenda other than yours.

Greg’s coaching journey began over 30 years ago during his service as a senior leader in the United States Army. His passion for diversity, equity, inclusion, and leader development matches his dedication to coaching in various sectors, including non-profits, corporations, government, military, and entrepreneurs.

Greg’s commitment to serving clients is unwavering, as demonstrated by his successful 28-plus-year US Army career, which included overseas duties in Germany and South Korea and combat duty in Iraq. He also completed several stateside assignments, culminating in Washington, D.C., at the Pentagon, where he was part of the team launching the Army’s inaugural Diversity program.

Greg’s most recent appointment to the Defense Advisory Committee on Diversity and Inclusion(DACODAI) is a testament to his commitment to serving the US Military, our nation, and its citizenry as a diversity, equity, and inclusion professional.

Greg utilizes a step-by-step approach to unlock information and then uses the information and discovery process to build results systematically.
