“When I’m not running a company, I’m playing in the dirt, growing unusual crops to make really smart ingredients. When I’m not playing in the dirt, I’m traveling the oceans looking for really feisty fish. When I’m not traveling in the oceans, I’m thinking about other really unusual crops to grow. An entrepreneur combining business, nature and wellness…with fun and indomitable spirit.”
