Greg's Story
Life
I went to college at West Georgia College and Georgia Tech, where I graduated with a degree in Theorhetical Physics. I went to graduate school at the University of Tennessee Space Institute.
I got married as I left UTSI, in 1984. I got divorced in 2000, but am now remarried. I have no children, unless you count my 3 puppies.
Workplace
After graduate school, I went to work for Teledyne Brown Engineering. For the first 3-4 years I did Government suport engineering (being a technical advisor and watchdog for technical development contracts), but had a hard time with customers that didn't want to hear the truth about what they were buying.

tem instrumentation. I also designed and built experiment packages for Space Shuttle and International Space Station missions. Additionally, Teledyne sent me to Business courses, and I worked for one of the Vice Presidents, doing corporate-wide technical advisement and development of industrial optical instrumentation projects for some of Teledyne's subsidiary companies.
After 14 years at Teledyne, I went to a small company, called TecMasters, where I built a laboratory and fabrication facility for hardware and software development for General Motors.
I am back at Teledyne Brown Engineering, in Huntsville. I am the Project Manager for a piece of NASA's SLS rocket, which will go to Mars. We are building the biggest, most powerful rocket ever built.
