Joshua Simone - CEO/ Founder 

Joshua Simone grew up near Chicago, IL and attended the Kelley School of Business at Indiana University.  After a severe football injury, Joshua went on a journey to discover the most powerful foods and healing techniques in the world.  His journey led him to Israel where it became clear that mushrooms were the food of the future (and the past). Joshua started Pitriya to educate the world about the therapeutic values of this amazing organism and provide products that are safe, effective, and distributed in America.
