After college, Hubert worked in the behavioral health field as a mental health counselor and then in the pharmaceutical business as a specialized sales representative for Eli Lilly and Company. In 2002, Hubert shifted his career to business and served as a VP of sales for Propel HR in Greenville, SC.

After years of maintaining a professional and “functional” lifestyle, Hubert finally fell victim of the devastation of alcoholism. In 2013, Hubert willingly decided that his progressive alcoholism was enough and admitted himself to an intensive outpatient program, coupled with an abundance of recovery meetings. His sobriety quickly opened many doors.

In 2017, Hubert was hired by FAVOR Upstate as the Senior Director of Emergency Room Services. Hubert helped launch a hospital program in Upstate emergency rooms to work with patients who presented with substance use disorders. While at FAVOR Upstate, Hubert received certifications as a National Certified Interventionist, a National Certified Peer Recovery Coach, a Certified Mayo Clinic Health & Wellness coach, and a Certified Family coach.

On 2021, Hubert resigned from FAVOR Upstate to pursue his independent interests and started Yarborough Recovery Solutions, LLC. Hubert uses his experience working with professionals in crisis environments to find fitting treatment solutions. He uses a compassionate, empathetic, and open-minded style, and his own recovery journey, to quickly connect with individuals and families who suffer from substance use disorders. Hubert has been engaged in over 1500 interventions.

Hubert is a graduate of Leadership Greenville, Leadership SC, and the Diversity Leadership Initiative at Furman University. Hubert has served on The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation of SC, the Leadership Greenville Advisory Council, the Leadership SC Board of Directors, and the GHS Children’s Hospital Advancement Council. He currently serves as board member for the Greenville County Drug and Alcohol Commission and devotes several hours a week facilitating group therapy at SC Detox and Treatment and the Greenville County Veterans Association.
