Perry Clarke Greene was born in Atlanta, Georgia, and spent his early childhood in Athens, where his father served as a minister at the Church of Christ campus. Throughout his youth, his family moved frequently, living in cities such as Memphis, Escondido, California, and Gainesville, Florida, before finally settling in Riverdale, Georgia, by the time he reached eighth grade. Despite the frequent location changes, he remained focused on working hard and overcoming challenges. From a young age, he showed determination, responsibility, and a strong work ethic.

At the age of nine, Greene began cutting lawns and collecting cans to earn money. By twelve, he helped his family deliver 500 newspapers each morning before school. At fifteen, he worked alongside a business leader to help open the first Chick-fil-A Dwarf House locations in Riverdale and Jonesboro. When other children were disciplined with time-outs, he spent time reading books about rental properties and sales techniques, which helped spark his interest in personal growth, business, and financial independence.

During high school, Perry earned All-State and All-Region honors as a baseball player. Afterward, he studied accounting for two years while playing baseball at Southern Union Junior College. When his dream of playing professional baseball shifted, he focused on attending the University of Georgia. To help cover the cost, he joined the Navy Reserve, serving in Hawaii and Thailand. He later earned a scholarship to Harding University and eventually transferred to the University of Georgia, where he graduated in 1996 with a degree in Accounting. That same year, he passed the CPA exam and started his career at Ernst & Young.

In 1998, Greene joined a family-owned construction business, where he quickly advanced to the position of general manager. By 1999, he had moved to Taylor Commercial, Inc., where he led the company’s growth from $600,000 to over $45 million in annual revenue.
