IntelliYeast Laboratories is the result of scientific discussion over beers, spousal debate in the hot tub and exceptional time management.

Chris

Co-founder, head of R&D, production and sales. Chris is a professor at the University of Saskatchewan with expertise in how our genes turn on or off in response to environmental changes. He has a black belt in Wing Chun Kung Fu and in his spare time, he entertains the family cat Jeff by playing the guitar (not well).

Nicole

Nicole – Co-founder, business planning, finance, human resources and administration. Also management at USask. In her spare time she organizes and delivers ‘Just Tri-It’, a female centered non-profit program empowering women through sport.
