ABOUT ME:
Grayson's most current artwork can be viewed on his web site, www.graysonfertig.com. Grayson works as a personal trainer and a writer in New York City, N.Y. , where he lives on a sailboat during the offseason. "The chance to interact with Time intimately," is what interested Grayson in bobsledding, and his athletic career goals are "greatness and perfection- to achieve them as I define these ideals."
