For 14 years, Greer wrote about fashion, dining and trends in Orange County, first as a popular columnist for the Daily Pilot and now as founder of Greer’s OC. Do you have a friend who always seems to be ahead of the trends, who has great taste, who has a great sense of humor and who you just like being around? That’s Greer.
She’s also a mother of four boys and married to a journalist. In her spare time, Greer runs marathons and loves to cook.
