Dr. Bill Andrews is the Founder and CEO of Sierra Sciences and Sierra Holdings, companies focused on finding ways to extend human lifespan and healthspan through telomere maintenance. Telomeres are found at the tips of our chromosomes and have been shown, in thousands of scientific peer-reviewed studies, to be the clock of aging in humans. When telomeres get shorter, we get older, and our health declines.“I Want To Live Forever”As a scientist, athlete, and executive, Bill continually pushes the envelope and challenges convention. He has been featured in Popular Science, The Today Show, and numerous documentaries on the topic of life extension including, most recently, the movie The Immortalists in which he co-stars with Dr. Aubrey de Grey. See www.theimmortalists.com/watch. Bill is known for being a scientist first, focusing on scientific research, allowing others, instead, to market the products that his company discovers.Bill has been a medical researcher in biotech since 1981, focusing on cancer, heart disease, and inflammation research, though his passion has always been aging. In the early-to-mid 1990s, while at Geron Corporation, Bill led the research to discover both the RNA and protein components of the human enzyme called telomerase. This enzyme is responsible for preventing telomeres from shortening in human reproductive cells, and this is why our children are born younger than we are even though they come from our old cells. Inducing this enzyme to lengthen telomeres in all our cells, not just our reproductive cells, to reverse aging and declining health due to aging, is the principal goal of Sierra Sciences and Sierra Holdings.

Catharine Amston is an expert in algae nutrition, a wellness thought leader, an experienced entrepreneur, and a sought-after speaker. Catharine has an MBA, BA Hons, is a board-certified health coach, and is studying for her PhD in Natural Health. Catharine's journey into the fascinating world of algae began in 2008 when her younger sister was diagnosed with breast cancer and advised by her oncologist that an alkaline diet would improve her healing. Catharine left her 25-year corporate career to help her sister identify which foods were alkaline and this led her to algae – the most alkaline, chlorophyll-rich, high-protein, nutrient-dense food in the world. When Catharine learned that algae's vast healing properties were documented in tens of thousands of scientific studies but that none of these studies or benefits were known outside of Asia, she knew she needed to do something. And so ENERGYbits® was born.Catharine has spent the last fourteen years researching algae, writing papers, giving presentations, lecturing at conferences, and speaking on 250+ podcasts to explain the benefits of algae. To do this, she read thousands of scientific papers that detailed, validated, and confirmed algae's nutritional, health, longevity, and global benefits. Remarkably none of these findings are known by consumers. It is Catharine's vision and passion to change this and while she is not a PhD (yet), her scientific fluency allows her to explain algae with such simplicity and clarity, it quickly becomes obvious why algae is something we all urgently need. Catharine's passion for algae is contagious, inspiring and thought-provoking. Her efforts have led to algae being better understood by educators, consumers, doctors, and wellness practitioners. Even the United Nations and NASA endorse algae as the most nutrient-dense food in the world and the answer to world hunger. Catharine's extensive knowledge and playful personality is both entertaining and educating and her speaking style leaves audiences informed, uplifted, and hopeful.

Leslie Kenny is an Oxford-based entrepreneur born in California and a graduate ofBerkeley and Harvard Business School. In her 30s, her life changed dramatically whenshe was diagnosed with an array of autoimmune conditions – lupus, rheumatoidarthritis and hypothyroidism. Her doctors told her there was no cure and they couldonly be managed with strong immunosuppressants. This didn't sit right with her.Coming from a Taiwanese background, she was raised with the mentality that it's bestto work with your body's innate wisdom to heal itself. Why would she suppress herimmune system rather than support it in its natural abilities? On a quest to revive herown health, she went back to school at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition in NYC.Her passion for health optimization grew and her career took an exciting andunexpected turn when she moved to Oxford and began working with Oxford University scientists and doctors. As well as becoming a certified health coach, Leslie began helping scientists atleading European universities, including the University of Oxford, to raise money fortheir health discoveries. It was at a meeting with one such scientist that she learnedof a natural compound called spermidine, found in a Japanese fermented soybeandish called natto. Spermidine showed great promise in supporting healthy aging withits ability to induce autophagy, our body's cellular renewal process that slows as weage. The science was compelling – scientists were calling it ‘an anti-aging vitamin'' –and it was safe. However, because it was a natural and food-derived compound, not adrug that would bring in more money, no one was interested in promoting it.Leslie tried (and struggled) to find natto in the US, and when she did come across it,she realized with its seriously sticky texture and funky taste and smell, that it wasn'tfor the faint-hearted! Spotting the unmet need for an alternative to natto, shedecided to bring a highly concentrated spermidine supplement to the US market. Withthe support of the esteemed University of Oxford scientists and doctors that make upour Board of Scientific and Clinical Advisors, she launched Oxford Healthspan with itsflagship product, the plant-derived spermidine supplement, Primeadine®.Today, at age 58, Leslie has reversed her autoimmune conditions and is living proofthat we can get better with age, so long as we take responsibility for our health andtap into our body's natural healing abilities.

“We are all one phone call away from tragedy or life changing news, and at age 41 I got that call that changed my life. I was told my mom had stage four cancer, and it was very aggressive. Mom urged me to get checked out, and it turned out that genetically I have a 1 in 4 chance of getting cancer. Yikes, well I decided I wasn't going to wait around for it or encourage it with bad eating habits. So I took charge of my life, bought an elliptical & started working out at home. I began researching how to eat healthier and slowly as I gained my confidence I joined a local gym. My husband and I started this together and we both lost 35 pounds. READ MY STORY in DFYNE MAGAZINE.Four years later and I have achieved many of my goals, one step at a time, & in some ways I have exceeded what even I thought I could do! In 2017 I was awarded IFBB Pro status at a National Competition. I'll never forget that day and I know mom was looking down on me and smiling, it was a dream come true. Now I enjoy helping others reach their goals, there is no better feeling to me than getting a phone call from a client in tears saying she lost another pound and can now fit into her favorite little black dress. It's very rewarding, and I love starting people of all ages on their personal fitness journey, for a step towards living their best possible life. The goals and rewards are endless & I look forward to working with you. If I can do this you can too!”

Aaron Cameron's vision for a state-of-the-art healing center sparked as a child over 25 years ago when he experienced some life changing events. These events inspired his journey to harness non-invasive modalities to help people tap into their own healing capabilities. Through the teachings of physics at a young age, Mr.Cameron learned that everything in our bodies has a frequency. He began researching and utilizing various frequency generating devices to help people re-establish homeostasis in their bodies, mind, and spirit. He was fascinated by the healing he witnessed through the use of these modalities. This led him to the understanding that self-healing was possible by removing blockages (or disease) in the body through the use of frequencies of sound and light with the quantum energy field. The establishment of Q360 encompasses Mr.Cameron's life's work, as well as the work of many of his predecessors and mentors.
