My Biography

Hey it’s Greg Link, but if I’m working at TGI Fridays, you may hear me called G-unit. If you’re reading this, then you are probably in my Written Communications class. So, it might be helpful to learn a little more about me. So here is some information about me that you probably don’t already know.


Because my dad spent twenty years in the Air Force, I spent my childhood moving around quite a bit. I was born in Melbourne, FL, where I lived for three years. There, the doctors discovered that I had an open artery. Basically, there was a hole in my heart that they used part of a cow’s heart and a metal heart stent to fill. This resulted in me not being able to play contact sports, and ride faster roller coasters. When I moved to Texas, I had my first head injury. I was only three when I fell off the kitchen counter and landed on my head. After a year, I moved to South Carolina. South Carolina is the first vivid memory of life, so it was my start at life in my perception. It is also the location of my second head injury, where I flipped my bike. We later moved to Turkey where I fell off a swing for my final head injury. Following Illinois, we settled in the valley of Freeburg, MN.

I attended Caledonia High School where I participated in a few extracurricular activities. I enjoyed singing for the choir, as well as a few smaller choirs. I was also in three school musicals, a solo ensemble, and the conference honors choir. I competed in Knowledge Bowl and volunteered for National Honors Society. Most importantly, I played for the golf team. Golf is my favorite hobby, and I want my life to revolve around it. I want to manage a golf course as a career, which is why I am currently enrolled in the Business Management program at Western TC. I enjoy music a lot; everything from hit music to opera. I particularly like the King’s Singers and Il Divo. As I mentioned before, I work at TGI Fridays. I currently wash dishes on weekends, and am starting my training to cook next week. I also work at my local golf course throughout the week as a shagger.

That should be enough information for you to get an idea of who I am. It’s not much, but it is enough to get you through this semester of Written Communications. I hope you tolerated my biography, and I’ll see you around class.
