Derek Wolfe with AG Gregoroff
When AG grew up in San Diego, he describes being a teenager when a corrupt group of police officers ran the show, and his family experienced a SWAT raid at his uncle’s house where later-proven planted evidence led to charges, and, on the advice of his lawyer, he plead guilty and was sentenced to prison. He spent nearly two years there before having his record cleared due to more investigation into the corruption that led to his arrest.
AG recounts his career in contracted work for the military, learning from his time with military professionals and leadership. Growing through the ranks in a local Apple store, he was eventually offered a managerial leadership position at the largest Apple Store in Las Vegas.
AG led his team to improve customer service and skyrocket sales by utilizing technology and focusing on performance over everything.
Through jiujitsu and more, AG has continued to make professional connections to increase and improve the reach of Toehold.
