Bob Fincher

Publisher /CEO

Bob is the mastermind behind Sustainable Community Media and ProudGreenHome, although he'll never admit to it. So we just call him the publisher and CEO.

Bob is as well known for his love of his alma mater, THE Ohio State University, as he is promoting all things green. (Bob insists on capitalizing THE for whatever reason!)

But a little about Bob. He was one of the four founding owners of Networld Media Group, which was where ProudGreenHome originated. He has 23 years of experience in distributing a range of products for the homebuilding and remodeling industries, and he has 13 years of experience in web development and online publishing. In other words, this guy knows what he's doing. He's also the co-founder of Sustainable Community Media, the parent company of ProudGreenHome.

Bob can be reached at bob@proudgreenhome.com.

Teena Hammond

Editorial Director/Associate Publisher

Teena is the editorial director and associate publisher of ProudGreenHome. And while that sounds fancy, all it really means is that she oversees all content for the site. If it's posted on ProudGreenHome, she's either written it, read it or edited it. And sometimes all three.

She's worked as a reporter or editor for more years than she can count, from everywhere from People magazine to W magazine and Women's Wear Daily. Her byline has appeared on thousands of articles in dozens of newspapers, magazines and books, including a weekly home improvement and remodeling column in newspapers nationwide. She.s picked up a few fancy awards along the way, but all that really means to the ProudGreenHome audience is that she knows her stuff. And how to find the best green and sustainable news and info to share with you.

Teena can be reached at teena@proudgreenhome.com
