Besides the comprehensive wealth management Greg provides to business owners and professionals, Greg has a particular affinity for helping widows and widowers, divorcees, retirees, and private foundations manage their interests. Some of Greg’s clients choose to align their investment choices with their values. Referred to as ESG investing for the criteria on which companies are evaluated – environmental, social and governance – sustainable investing considers that progress toward solving challenges such as climate change, social inequality and unfair business practices can be made by investing in companies and enterprises that promote sustainability. Greg and his family live in Chicago, IL, and his wife, Shannon, serves as Senior Pastor of the historic Fourth Presbyterian Church on Michigan Avenue. They have two teenagers and an overly friendly black lab.
