About greg

I desire to see men irreversibly changed for Christ through an understanding of how they uniquely bare God’s image; loving them while walking with them creatively in environments that are conducive to unlocking who they are and whom they are made for. I am the director New Wilderness Adventures and I enjoy cooking, baseball, writing, fishing, hunting and travel and hope to one day sail around the world. I am honored to be married to my wife Kryssy and am very thankful to be the father of his 2 sons Jackson and Luke with one a baby on the way.
