My journey with food allergies began in 2021, when I unexpectedly developed more than 10 food allergies. I once freely enjoyed trying new foods, cooking family recipes and eating out with friends. Those same activities have become complicated, exhausting, and emotionally heavy. Every meal requires research, caution, and repeated explanations. Food allergies didn’t just change what I ate, they changed how I showed up socially and how connected I felt to the people around me.

Alongside that lived experience, I bring over a decade of professional experience building and scaling operational systems across supply chain, technology, and product management, including work in AI/ML-driven software. I’ve spent my career navigating complex data environments and translating them into tools that help people make better decisions.

I’m also deeply connected to the food ecosystem. I mentor food brands and am an investor in early-stage startups and CPG brands. Through this work, I’ve seen how challenging it is for brands, retailers, and consumers to communicate clearly about ingredients, allergens, and safety.

Living with food allergies myself, understanding how food systems work behind the scenes, and supporting brands trying to do better has shaped the vision for Clear Day.
