I help supplement and pet-product brands prevent structural failure before products reach manufacturing, compliance review, or market scrutiny.


 Through Clean Label Supplements, I provide independent formulation, compliance-aware product development, sourcing review, and CMO-transfer support using a clean-label, manufacturing-first approach. 

How I Structure Projects

Phase 1 — Supplement Product Architecture & Development Decision Pathway

Define the product strategy before formulation begins.


  • Product positioning and use-case logic


  • Claim posture and regulatory exposure


  • Ingredient direction, sourcing risks, and CMO pathway

  • Formula development or refinement


  • Supplement Facts, claims, and documentation structure


  • Testing strategy, COA/spec review, and production readiness
