THE FOUNDER

Greg is a Professional Certified Coach (PCC) through the International Coach Federation (ICF). He is committed to the highest ethics and employing the core competencies as created by the ICF. He has been coaching since 2015 and now has close to 3000 hours working in his field. His clients have included a wide range of different needs and backgrounds including upper level and executive management in Fortune 500 companies, those new in their careers, minoritized undergraduate students, senior citizens with cancer, and many more. Over the years, Greg has trained and upskilled a plethora of new and intermediate-level professional coaches. Greg, as well as Coach and Rise, are on a mission. 

Coach and Rise was created to establish a safe environment to partner with people to help them see more clearly their core thoughts and beliefs about whom they are and what they are capable of accomplishing. The idea is to lean into what is aiding people in moving forward, and to clear the thoughts and beliefs that are preventing this forward movement. In other words, we remove limiting beliefs and shift the internal monologue to one that is creative, self-loving, and forward-moving. Coach and Rise exists to ensure we identify and reach any and every goal that is important to you. It also firmly believes that any and everyone should have access to coaching. It is life-changing work we do together that can change individuals, families, teams, corporations, and entire communities. If you cannot afford a Coaching Package as described, send us an email; we will have an introductory call, and if you are still interested we will work something out.  

Greg enjoys practicing mindfulness, personal growth, hiking, playing with his dogs, traveling, photography, and watching basketball; especially his alma mater Villanova University. He is in a loving relationship with his best friend and wife, and her two sons, along with a whole lotta dog. Greg’s favorite book is “The Four Ageements” by Don Miguel Ruiz and he is inspired by authors and speakers Deepak Chopra, Pema Chödrön , Eckhert Tolle, Brene Brown, and Simon Sinek. Favorite films include The Truman Show, Dead Poet’s Society, and Jerry Maguire. Except for the seedling picture, portrait photo, and the stairs painting, all photographs on this site were taken by Greg on his adventures.
