Born and raised on the Mississippi gulf coast, Greg moved to the Tampa area following his time in the Army. He attended the University of South Florida, where he graduated with a degree in mass communications and journalism. Therefore, his natural next progression was to immediately start selling boats. He’s had a passion for sailing and obsession with sailboats since his teens.
Over the past few years Greg has been refitting his 1973 Ericson 39 with the goal of cruising. There isn’t a system on the boat he hasn’t had his hands in. From fiberglass work to painting, electrical to plumbing, he can certainly tell you what not to do.
