Mae grew up in Northern California, learning many of her life lessons in her parent's organic garden. She believes health and vitality- the ability to nourish our bodies, minds, and spirit begins with our simplest daily choices. Because of this, Mae enjoys designing rituals from routines, finding wonder and presence in nature, and doing challenging, meaningful work. Mae graduated from California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo with a BS in Animal Science and Nutrition. As an R&D scientist, she studied temperature monitoring to improve animal wellbeing, decreasing the overuse of antibiotics in the dairy industry and within our food system. This work led Mae to study human health and change psychology 3 years later, ultimately meeting Drew Canole in 2010 and Djamel Bettahar in 2012 - the founders of organifi. Now serving as organifi's CEO and a member of the founding team, Mae brings over 15 years of experience in the agriculture and health industry. Since being founded in 2014, she has played a key role in organifi making INC. 5000's fastest growing companies list and being awarded Forbes Great Places to Work more than 4 years in a row. Mae lives in San Diego, California with her husband and loves playing pickleball, paddleboarding, birding, discovering new local coffee shops, and the amazing foodie culture.
