Starting his adventure in 2006-2007, Gregory delved into the world of Airsoft and YouTube content creation. His initial strides led him to Airsoft Extreme in Santa Clara, where he embraced the CA M15A4 CQB as his inaugural Automatic Electric Gun.
In 2008, Gregory embarked on a new chapter by enlisting in the U.S. Army, pursuing the MOS 25B as an IT Specialist. His military journey included graduating from Airborne School and serving with the 82nd Airborne Division at Fort Bragg, NC. Continuing on with the 78th Signal Battalion in Japan enriched his experiences before returning to Fort Bragg to join the 112th Signal Battalion (Special Operations) Airborne.
Transitioning from military service, Gregory charted a course into the marketing realm with PTS (Professional Training & Simulation) while finishing his Army career in the Army Reserves. Currently, he leverages his expertise in social media management for various companies and the fan club Jurassic Park Motorpool. Gregory's diverse interests extend into World War 2 reenacting, cosplay, and background acting, showcasing a multifaceted skillset.
