Five organizations, one through-line
Every project connects back to translating complex systems science into frameworks that people can actually use. From food safety certification to microbiome research to animal welfare.
Paleo Foundation
Founder & CEO
Active
For over 15 years, the Paleo Foundation has designed and implemented food certification standards used globally by manufacturers and brands. The Heavy Metal Tested and Certified (HMTc) program establishes category-specific contaminant limits using ALARA-based principles and statistical risk matrices for food, supplements, and personal care products.

Founder & Lead Researcher
Active
A clinician- and researcher-facing database designed to formalize disease-associated microbiome patterns through Major Microbial Associations (MMAs) and facilitate intervention development using a structured Microbial Shift and Realignment Process (MSRP). The validation framework requires interventions to both restore altered taxa and yield clinical improvement, co-validating the intervention and the underlying microbial signature.

Founder & Editor
Research
Foundational work introducing microbial metallomics as a critical lens to interpret pathogen virulence, microbial selection pressure, and nutrient-immune interactions in chronic diseases. Research focuses on the differential acquisition, utilization, and detoxification of trace elements among taxa enriched in disease states.
