Gregory's Story
Life
Wow...a life bio....nothing too intimidating...Currently live in Colorado, work like a mad fool with computers, networks, etc...ended up being one of "those" geeks. But, I enjoy my work, have a wonderful wife and kids, and we are enjoying life....

School
School is a very difficult subject for me, as it was mostly a blur, especially high school. I can't recall most names of anyone I went to high school with, and unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your perspective), my parents moved us across the country (to Virginia) from Colorado, the day after I graduated. They didn't tell me this was coming (were afraid I might run away), and consequently, I didn't even have the opportunity to keep in touch. I also think this was part of their goal...I was usually in trouble with someone...If I could do it all over again, I would have spent more time with everyone and really try to understand them. I think I was a "deer in the headlights" so to speak in school when it came to most things...
College
College was a lot of hard work. I didn't start ...Expand for more
going until I was 23 years old (mainly because I knew I wasn't ready or committed to it), and ended up working full-time, and going to school full-time year-round for 5 years. During that time, I was married, volunteered as a mentor for school-age children, active church leader, President of Toasmasters and actively involved for 4 years, etc. I was BUSY!!! Somehow, I graduated Cum Laude, with two B.S. degrees, and 1 associates. I could have done better, but there we are...It was a great experience, but very challenging with regard to time schedules. I wouldn't want to repeat that pressure cooker...
Workplace
This is far too involved. We'll just have to talk on the phone...K? But I'm doing very well...It's all good. Working on getting my own business up and going strong.
Military
Never did join the military, but came close. I graduated college, and had the opportunity to join the Air Force or Navy. I didn't want to join unless I was going to be an active pilot (I qualified for it), but since they were banking pilots right and left, it wasn't going to happen, so I said no thanks and moved on.
