FDA Product Compliance and Labelling / Food Safety Professional

Helping Food & Supplement Brands Navigate the Regulatory Maze Without Losing Their Sanity (or Their License) You handle the recipes. I handle the regulations. As a food safety and compliance mercenary, I partner with food manufacturers and supplement companies to dodge FDA warning letters, ace health department inspections, and keep their products legally delicious. With a knack for translating legalese (21 CFR, FSMA, HACCP) into actionable steps, I’ve become the "fixer" for brands who want to focus on growth—not government paperwork. Where I Step In: 🔍 FDA & State Compliance – From product registrations to label drama (yes, font size does matters), I ensure their stuff stays on shelves. 🚨 Inspection Triage – Mock audits, violation turnarounds, and training teams to not panic when the health department walks in. 📜 HACCP Plans That Don’t Collect Dust – Building food safety systems that actually work (and won’t make the QA team cry).
