Greg has been more than a gifted basketball player; he has been a leader on and off the court. Greg completed his college education at UNM with a bachelor's degree in university studies with an emphasis in political science. In 2005, Gregory earned a master's in sports administration.
Greg has been a mentor and example for the young men who have followed in his footsteps from basketball courts throughout the State of New Mexico. Greg is passionate about making a difference in the lives of young people and continues his work daily through his position as Community Center Director for the City of Albuquerque.
Greg's appeal to young people was once the burden positioned to destroy his dreams. His size now stands as a monument of how the will to succeed can fulfill the goals of your life. Contained in Greg's still youthful looking body is a heart of a champion that is now leading a team of young people to be successful.
As crafty as Greg was on the basketball court, he is even more innovative when it comes to reaching the minds of young people. "I use all of the things that I have learned in life to reach the young people that I work with to encourage them to be successful. I want to challenge them to desire to be the best they can be and then go out and obtain their goals," said Greg.
Great credits his parents and his family members on both sides of the tree for encouraging him to reach his goals. "Just as there was someone there to help me achieve, I want to be there to help others reach their potential," shared Greg.
