Founder of Invertebrate Studies Institute - a 501c3 nonprofit organization. ISI’s mission is to inspire appreciation for and conservation of the natural world through invertebrate-focused research, education, outreach, and entertainment activities. ISI strongly believes that if the public of all ages can be exposed to the wonders of invertebrates and a truly comprehensive picture of earth’s interconnected biodiversity, people will be inspired and motivated to push for strong, robust, and long-lasting measures to restore and protect our natural world. OUR VISION Think ‘Jurassic Park of Bugs’! The crown jewel of ISI will be the world’s largest Biodome and Insect Zoo attached to a world-class Research Institute focused on drug discovery and genomics - where the magic happens! As an NPO, we welcome inquiries of interest and gifts from those who support science and the natural world.

www.cricketpowder.com GrioPro™ cricket powder is the finest, lightest colored, most functional cricket-based ingredient on the market. It has the lightest color and mildest aroma and flavor of any dried cricket product on the market. Using a patented process, we are able to produce a very fine, dry and flowable cricket powder with a maximum particle size to be less than 100 micron. This fine particle size allows the powder to mix well with any recipes and prevents consumers from noticing any gritty cricket particulates. The powder’s light color and mild aroma and flavor make it an ideal nutritious protein ingredient for numerous recipes and FOOD PRODUCT APPLICATIONS. In fact, it is the only cricket product available on the market which works for sensitive applications such as protein shakes, pastas and baked goods where smooth texture, light color and mild flavor and aroma are critical attributes.
