Susanna Kahn, Food Scientist studying algae-based protein

Colleen Deyo

Associate Food Scientist

Colleen joined the Triton team in April, 2021 to support the development of plant-based products using  Triton’s algae. She is thrilled to apply her experience in the plant-based industry to create sustainable seafood and more. Prior to joining Triton, Colleen worked on the development of plant-based chicken products with the goal of bringing them to price parity with chicken through novel processing methods. She also worked at the Good Food Institute to characterize plant proteins for use in food applications. Colleen holds a BS in Food Science from Cornell University.

I pursued a career in the food industry because I think that food is one of the most effective means we have to create a more sustainable, healthy, and equitable planet. To that end, working with Triton’s algae as a canvas to develop the next generation of plant-based products is the opportunity of a lifetime. I am endlessly inspired by all of the brilliant work that has gone into the algae, and by the potential of this team.
