The Story

Initially conceived as the name for an urban rustic furnishings manufacturing business, it evolved into a vehicle for a more profound purpose. 

17North 88 West LLC The business name itself reflects a state of mind, rather a vision for life—a commitment to a slower pace, prioritizing relationships over a fast-paced, productivity-driven existence. 

It signifies contributing to the community based on genuine needs rather than perceived ones.

Before founding 17North 88West LLC, and opening Goodlife Home Concierge specializing in Home Watch, Concierge, and Maintenance services, Greg's background included growing up in southern Oregon, residing in the suburbs of Portland, and settling in Central Oregon in 2002. His experience involves owning and operating service and craft-based businesses, coupled with experience in the hospitality industry, all geared towards serving the local community.

Hospitality

"Every one offers customer service, most even offer great customer service. It is doing the thing that I do with precision, accuracy and efficiency. It is, getting the right thing to the right person at the right time."

"It is, Black and white."

"Hospitality, though, It is how I make you feel while doing the thing that I do with precision, accuracy and efficiency.. It is the extent to which I have created the conditions for connection while getting you the right thing at the right time."

"It is, Color."

What It's About For Me
