Gregory is a designer who believes the best work comes from lived experiences.

He lived in US National Parks along the Continental Divide.
He hiked the John Muir Trail all 211 miles of it.
He swam the span of the Golden Gate Bridge — twice.
He loves design, art history, and the natural world. 

Curiosity and doing hard things shapes his life, whether he is building new systems, hiking wild landscapes, or coaching others to hold a bias towards action.
