dairy & Animal nutrition

Before I was scaling companies or coaching executives, I was knee-deep in cows and calculations — literally. I grew up visiting dairies with my dad, who’s also a nutritionist — a second-generation calling that’s deeply woven into how I see the world.

I didn’t realize at the time just how much that experience shaped me.

I was drawn to the collaboration I saw between producers and advisors, to the shared purpose that showed up in early mornings, handwritten feed sheets, and quiet moments in the barn. Even then, I could sense the deeper story behind the daily work — a family-run business rooted in values, grit, and the calling to feed people well.

I loved the science, sure — but it was the soul of it all that kept me there.

My sweet spot?

Even the cows: massive, gentle, and unaware of their own power. They reminded me of us — how often we walk the world strong but disconnected from our impact.

Working with both animals and people gives me energy. It's where I feel most human.

And while my early research focused on heat stress and physiology, my work today is shaped by a growing global urgency — to care better, to farm smarter, and to nourish the future without compromising the values that built us.

I’m a trained Dairy Nutritionist with a PhD in animal science and decades of hands-on experience working with producers who care deeply about what they do — and who know that clarity and care are where success begins.

Working with producers who either have a strong, clear vision — or are ready to carve one out, even through the noise. I’ve spent enough time in the industry to know that the stress, pressure, and unpredictability can wear on anyone. Sometimes it clouds decision-making, sometimes it keeps folks in reactive loops.

I get it.

That’s why I hold space for both clarity and compassion — because progress isn’t about perfection, it’s about choosing to lead even when it’s messy.

I work best with those who take ownership, who want to do things better, and who aren’t waiting for the industry to save them.

Whether you’re a low-input or high-input operation, what matters most to me is shared clarity — clear expectations, honest goals, and the understanding that we’re on the same team. That’s the foundation for any real progress.

When that’s in place, I’m all in.
