About Lizanne
I built thinkThin®. My curiosity didn’t stop there.
My career has taken me from global modeling to building food brands. What connects it all is a curiosity about how we live better.

Where it began
Food was love before it was my business.
I grew up in an Italian-American family in the Pacific Northwest, where we grew food, cooked together, and gathered around the table. Wellness started there.
The world became my classroom.
At 18, modeling took me to Tokyo, Milan, Paris, Sydney, and New York. I learned to listen to my body while everything around me changed.

The thinkThin® chapter
I bet on protein before it was cool.
I wanted an easier way for busy women to eat well on the go. That question became thinkThin®, a high-protein, low-sugar brand acquired by Glanbia in 2015.

Then I asked a bigger question.
After thinkThin®, I founded betterland foods™ to explore what the next generation of protein could become.
Women’s health & longevity
The next chapter is shared.
