I will forever be grateful for the opportunity that I had to work with Greg back in Salt Lake City! He helped me grow not only as an HR professional but also as a leader and a person. He is the type of leader that I aspire to be. He always leads by example and isn't afraid to get his hands dirty. He takes the time to teach others with the goal of helping them to be the best versions of themselves as possible. Of the GMs I have had the privilege of working with I would consider him to be one of the best and would be happy to work with him again anytime.
