AUSTIN, Texas, Dec. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Shipshape, a company with a vision for all homes to be safe, reliable and efficient, today announced the appointment of Glenn Krevlin to the Company's Board of Directors. Mr. Krevlin is also a substantial investor in Shipshape's Seed Round building on a long track record of funding successful startups. Shipshape recently was named one of the top internet of things companies in Texas and was featured as an innovator changing the world for the better in Dennis Quaid's Viewpoint documentary series. Mr Krevin's Board participation will help to leverage Shipshape's technology and market position.
Glenn Krevlin is a highly-respected for his investment, entrepreneurial and board experience with broad knowledge of consumer end markets. Glenn was most recently the founder and managing partner of Glenhill Capital LP, a value-oriented private investment partnership. He also has extensive board experience with growing consumer companies, both private and public, including Ember Technologies (an IoT-enabled consumer products company), The Joint Corporation (a Chiropractic franchise), Capitol Q Restaurants LLC (a franchisee of Qdoba Restaurant Corporation), Design Within Reach (Chairman), Restoration Hardware, Inc., and Centriq, a home data collection business.
"Glenn brings us unique experience and success from investing in the home services markets Shipshape is targeting. Shipshape is building its Board by adding deep experience and connections in its key markets. Our opportunities start with the reality that homes in the U.S. waste vast amounts of money and make their occupants sick. Rich, or poor, educated, or ignorant, people are spending money to repair their homes without the information they need to understand what's the best thing to spend money on next. Shipshape's recent pilot showed that all of the homes tested were growing mold – and their well-educated owners did not know. Half of the repairs failed to fix the problem. With Shipshape 100% were fixed right and the owners know they continue to have healthy homes. Glenn's experience will help us to understand how to communicate better that Shipshape has the solution to make homes less expensive and healthier to operate. We're thrilled to have him on the Board of Shipshape." said Alexander Linn, founder and CEO of Shipshape.
"No company is focused on a consumer-friendly, holistic approach to managing energy efficiency and environmental issues in the home," Krevlin said. "Shipshape is creating a huge industry."
Earlier in his career, Mr. Krevlin worked at Cumberland Partners, Longview Partners & Goldman Sachs. Mr. Krevlin graduated from Wesleyan University, where he received his B.A. in Economics and Government and from New York University School of Business with an M.B.A.
