Gus, who previously belonged to Rotary Clubs in Atlanta and Cincinnati, is chief financial officer of EOS Surfaces LLC in Norfolk. He has worked at the 26-employee company since 2012. EOS manufactures and distributes two products -- colorful countertops made from recycled glass that are sold at more than 1,000 Home Depot stores and preventive biocidal countertops and molded products that kill bacteria. These products, which contain copper, are in use locally at the new Sentara Leigh Hospital and Children's Hospital of The Kings Daughters.

> When Gus joined our club in 2004 he was general director and CEO for Virginia Opera, which he led for eight years. He previously worked at  Alliance Theatre in Atlanta and with a ballet and opera company in Cincinnati where he grew up and played on his high school golf team and had "a steady diet of Sunday double headers" at Crosley Field cheering for the Big Red Machine (Cincinnati Reds to the rest of us). Gus earned an undergraduate degree in business from Miami University in Ohio and a master's in business administration from the University of Virginia's Darden School of Business. Gus and his wife Janet, who works with Mass Mutual, live in Norfolk and have three grown children -- two in Richmond and one in Dubai. They also have two grandchildren. In his free time, Gus enjoys golf, theater and traveling.
