Hi! I am a professional food scientist/timber farmer able to help with product development and quality projects. I've worked in both quality and R&D in various food industry settings, from the largest winery in the world to a small start-up spice company. I love all parts of R&D, from benchtop product formulation to ramping up the recipe for large-scale production. Supplement gummies, spice blends, wine and other alcohol beverages and spirits, candy, baked goods, sausages and cheeses are some of the products I have had a lot of experience developing. I also take food quality and food regulations seriously and can help your company prepare for the many stages of FSMA compliance. I'm not someone who needs a lot of direction - once we discuss the project, I will come back with questions, and once those are answered you can expect the project to be delivered quickly.

Food safety and quality assurance consultant with 10+ years of experience spanning food microbiology, quality assurance, and food safety management. Career began in microbiology — environmental monitoring, raw ingredient testing, and finished product testing — before advancing into building HACCP, SQF, and FSMA-compliant programs from the ground up. Core expertise includes hazard analysis and CCP determination, SQF program development and audit readiness, FSMA preventive controls planning, and SOP development that reflects actual facility operations rather than restated regulatory language. Experience spans FDA-regulated dietary supplements and conventional foods as well as FSIS-regulated meat products. Work is grounded in operational accuracy: procedures are built around how a facility actually functions, so documentation holds up under audit rather than simply meeting the letter of the regulation. Services include: • HACCP plan development, including hazard analysis, CCP determination, and process flow diagrams • SQF program development and audit-readiness assessment • FSMA preventive controls plan development • SOP gap assessment and technical rewriting • Nutrition Facts Panel, Supplement Facts Panel, and label compliance review
