Kevin Erik CarboneCEO, CFO, Board Director and FounderKevin Carbone is a 32-year-old entrepreneur from the Jersey Shore with a passion for health and fitness. Kevin graduated Cum Laude from Ramapo College in 2013 with a Bachelor of Finance. After graduation, he began honing his research and analytical skills at Bloomberg, and then went on to manage the analytics department at NRG’s Solar Division. The seed for Sauce Bae was planted 11 years ago when Kevin was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis at age 21. This propelled him towards a health-conscious lifestyle, where he discovered the transformative power of turmeric and clean eating. Realizing a void in the market for genuinely natural, low-sodium, turmeric-infused hot sauce, Kevin created Sauce Bae's original recipe in 2017 along with all the current branding himself. Today, Kevin is committed to making Sauce Bae a household name and the preferred choice for health-conscious hot sauce enthusiasts., Esty DelCioppoContributing AdvisorWith over 20 years of experience in advertising, Esty Gorman DelCioppo currently works at Google as a Creative Effectiveness Lead, helping brands develop more impactful communications on Google and YouTube.
