About Gregory
I was born and raised in La Jolla, CA. I attended Stanford University, where I majored in mathematics and economics, played on the men's varsity tennis team, and graduated with a 4.01 GPA, the highest GPA among student-athletes in my class year. To gain a broader international perspective and explore my finance passions more deeply, I got a Master's in Finance and Private Equity at the London School of Economics. Wanting to keep my options open early in my career, I worked out of school as a business analyst at McKinsey & Company, though I quickly realized that I wanted to pivot to high finance. I started in high finance as a private equity associate at Bain Capital, which gave me a great foundation in the space. However, I recognized that my ultimate calling in high finance was in public markets and secured a role as an investment analyst at Meritage Group, a multi-billion dollar family office where I worked for nearly a decade. While I very much enjoyed my tenure at Meritage Group, I decided that I wanted to pivot to a different type of role and be part of a more entrepreneurial investment fund, so I joined Reade Street, which is now a >$1 billion long-only investment fund. In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis, swimming, hiking, reading, and watching sports.
Why do I coach?
I coach because I like to help people achieve their potential. To get to where I am today, I got help from many people along the way, and there is no way that I could have figured out the path to get to where I am in my career without the coaching that I received from others who have been successful in their careers. I look forward to being able to share my knowledge to help you get to where you want in your career, whether that is in hedge funds, private equity, or management consulting.
