Greg's Story
Hey! After graduating from the Newhouse School at Syracuse University, I went to work for a national cable system operator for a number of years, handling media relations and governmental affairs. One of the best things about working for this company was having a boss who encouraged me to take advantage of tuition reimbursement and get my MBA. I left that company after around 4 years, and have spent the majority of my career working for health care organizations, and over the past decade for two major senior care campuses primarily serving the Jewish population. I sometimes feel like I am working among surrogate bubbies and zaidies.

finally, after 20 years, completed a somewhat autobiographical script that won a prize in a screenwriting competition in 2005. I am still trying to find a literary agent to help bring it to producers.
I miss the cities up north, but I got sick of the 8-9 months of cold weather, and decided to move to south Florida in 2004. Life is good.
I came to the 25th reunion of Toll Gate High School merely out of curiosity and stayed a total of 20 minutes which was more than enough. I am sure as adults, my classmates are less neurotic, less judgemental and less self-absorbed, but you never know.
I haven't been up to Syracuse since graduation - I have fond memories of great classes, Marshall Street hang outs, etc., but it is probably too cold. Easier to meet up with fellow grads in other parts of the country.
