An accomplished public speaker, Gregory has spoken at women’s retreats, MOPS meetings (Mothers of Preschoolers), and various Tres Dias events.

A breast cancer survivor, Gregory is an inspiration to others struggling with the disease. Gregory’s journey through treatment and chemotherapy was documented by news anchor, Edie Lambert of KCRA-TV Sacramento. ‘Susan’s Story; A Message of Hope’, the acclaimed video journal of her battle, received a regional Emmy in 2004, and encouraged Gregory to follow her dream of becoming a novelist.  A second documentary by KVIE, ‘Breast Cancer; Strength and Courage’ also won a regional Emmy. Slender Reeds: Jochebed’s Hope is Gregory’s debut novel (release: November 1, 2016) and sure to be well received by critics and readers.
