Gregg is the Director of Sales for Bond Collective. Gregg has spent his career growing a wide-range of companies, from start-ups to Fortune 500 businesses. Gregg has deep roots in business development and structuring processes that grow with each company’s needs. He has spent time in financial services and on the management team of two start-ups, both of which were acquired. Following his entrepreneurial spirit, Gregg founded PaidEasy, a venture backed start-up that was acquired in mid 2017. Gregg has great expertise in both growing and leading businesses for scalable success. At Bond Collective, Gregg oversees all things sales across all of our locations.
Outside of Bond Collective, Gregg enjoys time with his wife and their dog, Loki. On the weekends Gregg can be found walking his dog near Union Square or grabbing a bite at Bond Sushi (not a plug, we swear). Gregg loves that Bond Collective provides flexible work spaces with an emphasis on design and that we are not a cookie cutter space. Gregg is engaging with a great sense dry humor, and a charismatic leader in our Bond Collective family.
