Greg was born in Clarksville, Tennessee, as the youngest of four siblings. He watched his siblings develop their talents in theatre, music, and dance, which eventually inspired him to follow in their footsteps. Greg's first theatrical experience was in a summer production of "The Wizard Of Oz" at a local high school.
Growing up, Greg spent a lot of time with his neighborhood friends creating performances for unsuspecting adults. He also sang in the local church choir and made music with his extended family during family gatherings, which included square dancing. During this creative period, Greg became certain of his true passion - movies.
Although he was unsure of how to pursue his dream, Greg's need to perform was fueled by his growing musical ability. By the age of 12, he was a sought-after tent revival singer, known for his rendition of "Peace In The Valley," which he learned from his mother during summer vacations.
After college, Greg pursued work in Raleigh, North Carolina, where several of his friends were already working as waiters and building their resumes. He struggled and performed in several area community theaters for a year before joining the Broadway cast of "The King and I" in North Carolina, following the death of Yul Brenner.
Within a year, Greg had built a solid resume and earned his Equity Card. He then moved to South Florida, where he finished earning his Equity Card and waited tables for the last time. Greg spent the next several years as a union stage actor and director, working on over 30 productions with renowned actors such as Jennifer Holliday, Marcia Lewis, John Cullum, Jodi Benson, Armelia McQueen, and Chita Rivera, and earning several "Best Director" awards for his work.
In 1990, Greg became the Resident Director and Choreographer of The Atlanta Lyric Theatre, where he guided the company through ten consecutive seasons, staging over 40 productions during his tenure.
He resigned from this position to pursue his real dream, film, and in 2001, his first major opportunity arose in the form of a Florida State University graduate thesis film called Saudade. Greg created the leading character, Luke, in this award-winning short film.
He then went on to dance alongside Jack Black in the Sundance favorite, Run Ronnie Run!, before tackling several local Atlanta TV pilots, including the Monty Python-esque Witch Hunters Extraordinaire. From 2001 to 2003, Greg played leading and supporting roles in various independent features and shorts, including Storyboard in A Major, Afterlife, The Adventures of Ociee Nash, and Ghost of the Needle, for which he won his first acting award.
Shortly after, he landed the role of Peter in one of the last episodes of Dawson's Creek, followed by the recurring role of Dr. Adams on One Tree Hill. In the 2008 film "3," Greg had the opportunity to portray racing superstar Darrell Waltrip, going head-to-head with Barry Pepper as the legendary Dale Earnhardt.
