Former RMI Principal Huston Eubank Joins iLiv Executive Team
Montreal (March 1, 2008) — iLiv today announced that Huston Eubank has joined the Company as Vice President for Knowledge and Community. Most recently, Mr. Eubank served as Executive Director of the World Green Building Council and as a green building expert at Rocky Mountain Institute.
Mr. Eubank is an architect with extensive experience in the sustainable design of buildings, communities and businesses. His background includes serving as a Principal with the Green Development Services team at Rocky Mountain Institute, Founding Secretary and Executive Director of the World Green Building Council, the Director of Building Futures Services for David Gottfried (the founder of the USGBC and WorldGBC), the "EarthSmart Ambassador" at Portland General Electric, and a senior project architect at Gensler. Huston has a Bachelor of Architecture degree from Cornell University. He is a LEED AP as well as a Certified Construction Specifier, and in 2004 he was named a Fulbright Senior Specialist.
“Huston's depth of knowledge about the people and the technologies of green buildings is outstanding,” said iLiv Chief Executive Officer Andrew Culver. “He has a talent and passion for connecting people and know-how that fits perfectly with his new role as iLiv's V.P. for Knowledge and Community. Huston will inspire iLiv's users and customers with his integrity and commitment to greening the world's buildings, and I am personally very pleased to welcome him onboard.”
“One of my long-term goals is to help to create high-leverage and large-scale new ways of doing business-as-usual that are restorative as well as profitable,” said Mr. Eubank. “I was attracted to iLiv by Andrew Culver's ideas about creating a special place on the web to make the sum of green building knowledge and resources readily available and useful to anyone on the planet. Amory Lovins and others have spoken for years about creating a 'beneficial social virus'. If we are successful, iLiv will have accomplished that aim.”
