BRIEFING

SUBJECT

“I figure if it helps me, someone out there might like it also.”

ORIGIN

Middle school. The games were blocked.

He pulled the files at home and brought them in on a USB stick.

Later, the school Google Drive.

Nothing ever traced back to him.

He still moves data for a living.

Millions of rows now.

This time, with permission.

PRIMARY ASSIGNMENT

Patches enterprise data, writes C# APIs, and keeps long-running SQL jobs feeding customer-facing data. Goes all the way up when needed: React, Tailwind, micro frontends.

Has shipped production data patches inside a day. Same method, faster clock:

1. TRIAGE
2. ASSESS WHAT MUST CHANGE NOW
3. ACQUIRE CANDIDATES
4. FIND THE HOOKS
5. TEST
6. EXECUTE

Shows stakeholders samples of the exact changes first. That is where the change they didn’t really want comes out.

“Writing the code is the easy part.”

SECONDARY ASSIGNMENT

Founder and former head coach of VCU Climbing. Still basically the head. 5+ years, 20 to 25 climbers. Builds the curriculum, runs practices and logistics, stretches a small budget, and coaches at comps. Funds a team scholarship personally.

CASE NOTE

First-season climber, hard worker, real talent. Comp one taught her to trust herself and push harder. He sharpened her skills before comp two and piloted her to the first finals round of her life. She didn’t win. She’s staying with the sport and the team through grad school.

SUBJECT ON COACHING AND CODE

Both are solving problems inside a context. The direct path is often wrong, because of a hidden hook or the specific kid in front of you. Know your audience, stay aware, and act once you know enough to decide.

COMPETITION RECORD

The coach also competes.

Climbs V10 in the gym.

SIDE OPERATIONS

Pattern: solve it for himself, then for the people around him.

PAPERMAXX

He’s a UFC nut, so he built an MMA prediction platform. Put out a bounty on infinite money glitches. Built a halal mode for one friend, because a bigger company never would.

OPEN SOURCE CLIMBING

His team needed tools, so he built them.

ECHO MINI

Modding a music player’s firmware to make it more personal.

ALARM APP

Shelved. He needed a better alarm, but Expo couldn’t do real iOS alarms and going native was more job than the app was worth at the time. May reopen.

OFF DUTY

WATCHES

MMA, OBSESSIVELY

COLLECTS

TRANSFORMERS

READS

OLD WOUNDS

MEMORY MANAGEMENT IN C. THE PROFESSOR REQUIRED VIM. EVERYONE ELSE IGNORED THAT. HE DID NOT.

KNOWN FOR

WORKING VERY HARD, ALWAYS BEING BUSY, AND HELPING ANYWAY. COLLEAGUES CALL THIS "SO GREG."

FAVORITE TRANSFORMER

MAGMATRON. STRUCK OUT ON HIS OWN. HE WAS HUNGRY. SUBJECT IS STARVING.
