Greg Popowich

Greg spent 18 years working in television production prior to going back to school to study Architectural Design. He is currently an Associate with the architectural design firm SEPW Architecture Inc. As a Certified Construction Contract Administrator, Greg’s primary job is to ensure new buildings are constructed according to the design requirements of the contract documents. Recent buildings in which Greg has been involved include the new STC Bus Depot in Regina and the Student’s Union building at the University Of Saskatchewan in Saskatoon. Greg and his wife, Elizabeth, have two sons, Nicholas, who continues to study voice and acting as a hobby, and Lucas, who is currently pursuing a degree in musical theater. Greg’s decision to volunteer for a position on the board of Golden Apple Theatre is a result of the wonderful development opportunities the Regina performing arts community has offered to his family.
