Originally from Portland, Oregon, attended University of Oregon in Eugene and moved to St. Louis while working for Nike. The temporary relocation turned permanent as his love for St. Louis grew. Having discovered Washington University in St. Louis and it's great reputation, Gary went back to school and got a Masters of Business Administration (MBA) and Masters of Information Management (MIM). To put his new master's degrees to use, he started an IT consulting business which continues today. He also runs an income tax preparation practice. Gary's business and tax expertise makes him an excellent adviser and ally when negotiating one of the biggest transactions of your life.
