Andrew Abraham, MD may be the founder and CEO of Orgain, but the best part about him is that he’s just your average guy that happens to have an incredible passion for nutrition, health and wellness, along with a fresh perspective on life that he wants to share with the world. At only 17 years old Andrew was diagnosed with rhabdomyosarcoma and underwent over a year of grueling treatments. It was during this time that Andrew realized that the nutritional odds were stacked against him, and he was forced to forge his own nutritional path to ensure his survival. Thankfully, with the love and support of family and friends, he survived and went on to complete medical school and to eventually become the founder of Orgain. Flash forward to today, Andrew has added husband and father of two young boys to his already impressive resume. While life has become increasingly busy he continues to strive each day to live a healthy, active and balanced lifestyle not only to stay well, but also to set a good example for his boys and everyone around him.

Keith Hine, MS, RD is our VP of Healthcare, Sports and Professional Education and leads our efforts to educate and inspire healthcare professionals, consumers and partners on the unique benefits Orgain products deliver compared to conventional nutrition brands. Keith started with Orgain in 2016 after discussions with Dr. Andrew Abraham, Orgain’s Founder and CEO, about his goal to raise awareness of Orgain among dietitians and other healthcare professionals. Andrew was looking for someone with Keith’s profile to help pioneer that work for the company. He joined Orgain and has never looked back. Keith’s career to date prepared him well for this role, as he has over 25 years of experience in various positions, including a generalist dietitian in hospitals, a nutrition support dietitian, and a clinical nutrition manager at a large health system. After those years in clinical dietetics, Keith transitioned to the commercial nutrition industry and progressively held more responsible roles in a variety of functional areas. Keith lives in the western Chicago suburbs with his wife Stephanie and their two sons. He loves that his role at Orgain allows him to tap into all his professional experiences, but that he’s not alone in the mission of raising awareness of Orgain in the medical community.
