He graduated from high school in 2011.

He won four races during his career in the K&N Pro Series East, with the first coming at South Boston Speedway in April 2010; he also won once in twelve starts in the ARCA Racing Series, at Mansfield Motorsports Park.

Camping World Truck Series

Gresham made his debut in the Camping World Truck Series in 2011 at Las Vegas Motor Speedway. He made three starts late in the season in the series, finishing 54th in the final season standings, in preparation for 2012, when he will be competing for Rookie of the Year in the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series, driving the No. 24 for Joe Denette Motorsports as a teammate to four-time Truck Series champion Ron Hornaday Jr. However, Gresham's performance in the Trucks failed to live up to expectations, and he parted ways with JDM after eight races in the 2012 season. He signed with Eddie Sharp Racing to run selected races later in the year shortly thereafter; he returned to ESR for the full 2013 season. His team ESR shut down midway the season, but his ride was secured by SGR allowing him to finish the season. He finished 16th in the point standings, including a best finish of third at Charlotte.
