I’m excited to share that I’ve joined FOOP Organic Biosciences as Director of Sales & Partnerships.

What drew me in wasn’t just the business—it was the product line, the company’s mission, and how broadly it applies across different types of growers.

From homeowners trying to grow a better lawn & garden…
to landscapers managing installs and ongoing maintenance…
to golf courses and large properties…
to commercial farms and specialty growers looking for cleaner, more effective inputs.

What the team has built is simple in concept, but powerful in practice:
probiotics for plants that bring life back to your soil.

And it’s not theoretical—it’s already being used in real environments:
• Fort Sam Houston National Cemetery
• Golf and country clubs transitioning to organic programs
• Landscaping projects like the Georgetown waterfront plantings

At the product level, it’s about improving soil health and plant performance in a more natural way—whether that’s through liquid compost that replaces traditional methods or biochar infused with beneficial microbes to strengthen soil biology.

What’s interesting to me is how this connects across very different audiences:
• Backyard gardeners
• Garden clubs and community spaces
• Landscapers (maintenance and installs)
• Retail and distribution partners
• Commercial growers, including emerging categories

There’s a bigger shift happening toward simpler, more sustainable growing—and I’m looking forward to helping expand how and where these solutions show up.

If you’re working in any of these areas—or just passionate about growing things well—I’d enjoy connecting and learning what you’re seeing.
