Seth J. Riklin

President
Seth J. Riklin is the immediate past chairman of the Executive Board of Directors and is a longtime member of the B’nai B’rith Board of Governors and Executive Board of Directors. He has served as chair of the B’nai B’rith Senior Housing Committee and twice served as B’nai B’rith’s treasurer.  
 
Riklin has been part of the B’nai B’rith Senior Housing Network for more than 30 years, serving as Vice President and President of the Goldberg B’nai B’rith Towers, a federally subsidized low-income, non-denominational affordable senior housing building in Houston, Texas. Riklin’s desire to join B’nai B’rith was inspired by his father, the late Sam J. Riklin, and his uncle, Arthur Riklin, who both served as President of the San Antonio B’nai B’rith Lodge, as well as Sarah Riklin, his aunt, a past tenant of Goldberg Towers. 

Outside of his efforts for B’nai B’rith, Riklin practiced business law for almost 30 years. Riklin is the founder and current President and CEO of Hill Country Wind Power, LP and Clean Power Texas, which develop utility-size wind and solar energy projects. He is also deeply involved in his community, having served as a member of the Sugar Land Rotary Club and on the Government Relations Committee of the Fort Bend County Chamber of Commerce. Riklin is also a pilot and has served as Captain in the Civil Air Patrol. 
 
Riklin received his law degree from the University of Houston Law Center and bachelor’s degree in accounting from the McCombs School of Business at the University of Texas at Austin. He has been recognized in “Who’s Who in American Law, 10th Edition.
