Bryan Quoc Le, Ph.D.

Hello there!

My name is Dr. Bryan Quoc Le, and I'm the author of 150 Food Science Questions Answered (Rockridge Press, 2020). I'm also a food scientist, storyteller, and consultant for the food industry.

Driven by my personal experience walking 2,000 miles for six months across the United States, I'm inspired every day to help food companies, entrepreneurs, and startups build a healthier, cleaner, more sustainable world.

Every week, I share about my obsession with the science of taste and flavor through The Science Says. I also help run the 15k-member subreddit forum, /r/foodscience, as a moderator.

I previously served as the VP of Digital and Social Media for the Institute of Food Technologists Student Association, where I led the team that produces the award-winning blog, Science Meets Food.

I can help you build out your story in alignment with your business goals and bring awareness of your company to your target audience, whether that's business customers, corporate decision-makers, or angel investors and venture capitalists.

Are you ready to work with me to build out your company's story and product pipeline?

Feel free to reach out to me for a free 30-minute consultation today!

I look forward to hearing from you!

Yours truly,

Bryan Quoc Le, Ph.D.
