Lisa Curtis is the Founder & CEO of Kuli Kuli Foods, the leading brand pioneering the sustainable superfood moringa. Moringa is a protein-rich leafy green, more nutritious than kale, with anti-inflammatory benefits rivaling turmeric. Kuli Kuli’s superfood powders and snacks are sustainably sourced from African women and other small farmers around the world and sold in 11,000 U.S. stores. Moringa is a naturally energizing green superfood packed with protein, antioxidants and vitamins. Kuli Kuli offers the highest quality, most sustainable superfoods by partnering with local entrepreneurs and sourcing directly from small farmers, prioritizing African and women-led social enterprises.

Lisa began working on Kuli Kuli while serving in the Peace Corps and has grown it into a multi-million dollar social enterprise. Prior to Kuli Kuli, Lisa served as the Communications Director at Mosaic where she managed a team of six to grow the company from zero to over $5M invested in clean energy. Previously, Lisa wrote political briefings for President Obama in the White House, served as a United Nations Environment Programme Youth Advisor, and worked at an impact investment firm in India. Lisa has been recognized on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list and Inc Magazine’s Top 100 Female Founders list.

Dr. Fahey is a nutritional biochemist with extensive background in plant and human nutrition and phytochemistry. Dr. Fahey was an Assistant Professor at Johns Hopkins Medical School, where he directed the Cullman Chemoprotection Center, a leading center for the study and development of plant-based protective agents. He had faculty appointments in three departments at Johns Hopkins Schools of Medicine and Public Health where he conducted laboratory and clinical trials, taught graduate courses, and mentored students since 1993. He spent the first 15 years of his career in agricultural biotechnology research and industrial process development. Dr. Fahey “retired” in mid-2020 to focus his attention entirely on outreach and educational efforts which include podcasts, writing, and lecturing widely. He maintains adjunct appointments at JHU and elsewhere and may be available to consult for socially responsible food and supplement companies and foundations.

Among the companies for which Dr. Fahey presently consults, are: Brassica Protection Products, which he co-founded over two decades ago, develops nutritional ingredients from cruciferous vegetables. They provide their naturally-sourced glucoraphanin (TrueBroc) as a source of sulforaphane to the leading manufacturers for nutritional supplements, beverages and foods. He has long been a scientific advisor to Kuli Kuli, the leading moringa brand in the US. He loves adding their moringa powder to his various homemade recipes and drinking moringa herbal tea in the afternoon for a caffeine-free energy boost.
