Meet the team

Leigha Dickens and Steve Linton are passionate about the environment and sustainability. They enjoy teaching others about these topics. One way they do that is to write about environmental issues in various media. [link to Steve's articles/blog posts/newsletter articles]

Leigha Dickens, Green Building Coordinator

Leigha works with Steve to help customers evaluate their sustainability options, and provide technical expertise about Deltec's green products. She also performs energy audits for Asheville's BuildSmart. She recently earned her BS in physics from the University of North Carolina at Asheville, where she was actively involved with environmental initiatives.

Her environmental experience ranges from modeling the performance of solar arrays at Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute to serving as a natural resource interpreter in Shenandoah National Park. She has also worked in outdoor education as a high- and low- ropes course facilitator.

Leigha is also an avid rock climber, and mentors middle school girls in a local program that uses rock climbing to help teach self confidence. She volunteers with a wilderness trail maintenance crew and also enjoys reading good books. She writes regularly about science and environmental issues.

Steve Linton, President and former Director of Sustainable Technologies

Steve came to Deltec Homes in 2007 to start a new sustainable technologies department. He focused on helping homeowners improve product energy efficiency and educating builders and homeowners on best practices for sustainable construction. As an expert in green building, he continues to champion green building through his role as company president.

He is a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Accredited Professional and formerly a BPI (Building Performance Institute) Certified Professional. Steve has a degree in Civil Engineering from Cornell University.
