Mike Schiller
A native Pittsburgher and successful entrepreneur, Mike Schiller assumed his position at Green Building Alliance in February 2011. Having founded three for-profit companies, one nonprofit organization, and one charter school—all of which are currently thriving—Mike brings a great deal of passion and enthusiasm to his work. Locally, he is most well known for having established both Venture Outdoors, a nonprofit dedicated to promoting outdoor recreation in Western Pennsylvania, and Confluence Technologies, Inc., a leading provider of mutual fund back-office software applications. Immediately prior to coming to GBA, he worked for alternative energy start-ups and spent time writing, teaching, and reviewing business plans other new companies. Mike also currently teaches occasionally for the Wilderness Medicine Institute (Wyoming), instructing others through first aid and first responder courses.
