Team

It is very important to have a strong team that is in alignment with our values and supports the GOI vision. All of our Members and Power Partners are considered a strong part of our team but below you can see who makes the internal magic happen!

Richard J. Mastic was born in Pittsburgh, PA, raised in Shaler Township, and attended Shaler Area High School where he wrestled, played rugby, was senior class president, and consistently gave back to the community. He then attended University of Colorado in Boulder, where he majored in Finance with a concentration in Entrepreneurship. Over the Course of his four years of study, he found his passion was to pursue alternative and sustainable ways of living. After graduating, R.J. decided to join two friends in creating Green Office Ideas, LLC in August of 2007. As the company progressed both friends have moved on to pursue other interests, but the energy, passion, and enthusiasm that R.J. carries has only made GOI grow. Green Office Ideas' mission is to educate others about the necessities and benefits of sustainable business practices. R.J. lives his life with the same values that company holds.

Personal: When R.J. isn't working he spends his time coaching high school wrestling in Boulder, learning/teaching yoga classes, enjoying live music, and pariticipating in outdoor activities. Giving back to the community is also something that he feels very strongly about and donates as much time and money as he can through various avenues and has built GOI to do the same. Living his life to fullest, R.J. has a complete appreciation for all aspects of his life, and the world we live. He enjoys helping others accomplish these same goals while also helping them to see the importance of preservation.

In 2006 he moved to Boulder, Colorado to attend the University of Colorado. Currently he studies: Environmental Studies, Business, and Math. During his sophomore year he studied abroad in Buenos Aires, Argentina for eight months. He did extensive traveling throughout South America and learned the language and culture, which he now incorporates into his modern day life.

Personal: When not trying to help green things, he enjoys concerts; hiking, biking, and the traditional South American drink Mate. He is constantly looking for new opportunities to travel so that he can experience new cultures and meet new people. He feels this is a very important thing to experience it really helps to define a person. He also enjoys speaking Spanish when he can find others that speak it proficiently.
