Ken Trinder, President and CEO of \u0112OS.
A graduate of Franklin and Marshall College and Wake Forest School of Law, Mr. Trinder is a licensed attorney in Virginia and practiced law until 1998 when he purchased Trindco, a small countertop fabrication business in Suffolk, Virginia.\xa0 Through acquisition and sales growth the company\xa0 grew to sales of over $6 million by 2005.\xa0 In 2005 Mr. Trinder sold Trindco and started \u0112OS Surfaces, LLC.\xa0 He believed that if a solid surface could be the same thickness as a slab of natural or engineered stone, then it would not need an edge build up or as much labor to create a finished countertop.\xa0 The product he developed, \u0112OS, was largely recognized as the most innovative product the industry has seen in several years and subsequently received the \u201cInnovation Award\u201d from his peers within the industry.\xa0 Since the development of the initial product, \u0112OS, the company has, under Mr. Trinder\u2019s leadership, developed a \u201cgreen\u201d countertop, G\u0112OS, using recycled crushed glass and most recently \u0112OScu, the first anti-microbial solid surface to receive EPA registration, thus allowing the company to make public health claims.\xa0 He lives in Norfolk, Virginia, with his family.Jamie Miller, Founder of Alfabet
