My name is Gregory Gordon, Greek-American born in Germany. Grew up in American military communities in various places in Germany. Attended and graduated from the German Highschool system to then pursue a degree in Business Management from the University of Maryland. During this time I worked for the Foreign Service with the United States Department of State. Later I moved to the heart of Silicon Valley, San José, California, where I got my second degree in the field of Architecture from San José State University. For six years I worked on large scale projects and master plans for many technology companies and universities in the area such as Google, Apple, Stanford University, and Berkeley University.
As my family mostly resided in Europe, I moved back to be close to them and pursue a masters that would add another tool set to my folio. It is here I came across the Mundus Urbano program that offered the opportunity to meet more like minded people and to study in two universities in two different countries. Tor Vergata being one of the them and Darmstadt Polytechnic the other.
My goal is to help create and guide sustainable cities, government practices, resource management, and increase the quality of life for all beings. Cohesion and balance between people and nature.
