Tripp Parks

​In recent years, Tripp's mom had a stroke, which turned into dementia. While taking care of his mom, he knew there needed to be a different way to help people get fit and to help mitigate illnesses and diseases that are rampant. His experience with his mom, and his years as an athlete, helped Tripp develop the idea for "Health Profiling" through genetic testing.
