FOUNDER

Greg founded RayLign in 2004 based on the integration of three key components of his life and career – families working together, aspirational strategy development and long lasting positive human relationships.  As the company name suggests, the business focuses on the “align”ment of the many stakeholders participating together on the dynamic path toward sustaining well-being through the generations.  He has built a team, services and network to be a “ray” of light for modeling highly collaborative, transparent and empathic interaction across the family system.
