Our Story

Conscious Campus provides inspiring programs that build social and cultural awareness, foster community and promote acceptance and respect. We are a family-run business, based in the woodlands of Connecticut. Greg Bura and Rhei C Gordon started the business 10 years ago, and many of our roster members have been with us from the beginning.

Greg spent 15 years developing musical talent before turning to his attention to social and environmental justice and bringing together people seeking a more peaceful and equitable world. His passion for activism and community-building shapes the deep diversity of inspiring speakers. Rhei C worked for 20 years in mind-body fitness and for 9 years as an advocate for victims of domestic violence, serving as a crisis counselor; often working closely with law enforcement officials. She has led self-care and mindfulness learning groups and now offers such programs at Conscious Campus.

Both Greg and Rhei C are music lovers and wild dancers. Yes, wild dancers. They met as musicians at an event Greg was promoting. Building connections being Greg’s thing, he soon became tour-manager for Rhei C’s band. Eventually the friends would marry and become life-long business and parenting partners. “We feel blessed that as our business has grown, so has our love,” Greg says.

“The love we foster in our home and business extends into all our interactions and programs. Building community through experiences that build connections that can transform lives is incredibly rewarding.”

“Conscious Campus provides more than just a business, they feel like family to me. They truly care about your experience, and consider every detail you give them to make sure you can have the best events for your campus.”

Conscious Campus is an organization that is the intersection of purpose, passion and product. No matter who the educator, speaker or artist, you become a part of Greg and his global family, dedicated to positive social and environmental impact, and to ensuring your event is 100% great for your campus. I’ve rarely worked with someone so willing to go above and beyond for your initiative, and am happy any time we can work together.

I work with the best people! I had a conference call this morning with Greg Bura @Conscious Campus and after a few back-and-forth emails we were planning to have coffee together in spirit- he lives in Connecticut- instead- he did some internet research and called Broast Coffee and sent me on a little scavenger hunt to find a gift card waiting for me at Broast so I could have coffee during our call...it’s the little things that make a huge difference! Greg Bura you have the kindest heart and have made my week!!! THANK YOU!
