Outside of work, Greg has travelled extensively and worked abroad in Switzerland in his youth. He’s skied down the Schilthorn (alt 2,970m) in Switzerland; hiked down the most dangerous hiking trail in the world – Angel’s Landing, Utah; hitchhiked across Canada; hiked inside the Arctic Circle and walked the Na Pali coast on the island of Kauai.
