Growing up surrounded by water, Greg spent most of his life in, on, and around the sea. Windsurfers and Hobie catamarans were his watercraft of choice back then. He scratched his creative itch with an old Canon camera, and studied photography at F.I.T. and N.Y.U. After graduation, however, he switched over to the production and promotion side of the industry.

After a career working as an agent for product, fashion, car and lifestyle photographers in New York, Greg escaped the city life relatively unscathed and none the worse for urban wear and tear. He later moved to Alaska and re-connected with nature, wilderness and a life of adventure. He spent his years up north as a publisher for a print and online adventure publication and sled dog tour guide, as well as expeditioning/winter camping in the Alaskan interior.

Feeling the magnetic pull back to the water, he eventually led sea kayaking, sailing, photography and bear viewing tours in Southeast Alaska, Prince William Sound and Kachemak Bay.

Wanting to spend more time on water unfrozen, he migrated south to the San Juan Islands and has spent the last 10 years solo sailing and exploring the flora and fauna of the Salish Sea, the Great Bear Rainforest, and Haida Gwaii islands.

He recently re-discovered his early passion for image making.

Greg currently owns and operates Emerald Isle Sailing Charters out of Deer Harbor, Orcas Island.
