Our Team

Alyssa and I got into malt while exploring market-based ways to support conservation projects on family farms. Along the way, we realized Mainstem is in a unique position to inspire much broader change, so we've been pushing to be the beverage industry's model for comprehensive malt sustainability. Getting it right means the world to us.
