Co-founder and CEO of Tender Food – a food technology company on a mission to make alternative meats so delicious, nutritious, and affordable that eating animals just won't make sense anymore! Why? Because meat is one of the most destructive and polluting industries on our planet! So at Tender, we're tackling that head on by making the most delicious, healthy, and affordable meat alternatives possible, so that choosing them becomes simply the better option, not a sacrifice.
