Behavior change solutions that empower people to thrive.

Lemon Grove Ventures is a nutrition consultancy that uses behavior change research to make healthy choices simple. By understanding how choices are made, we create solutions that empower people, businesses, and communities to thrive. Our mission is to translate behavioral science research into actionable solutions to improve the health of people and the planet.

Sheryl Allen, MS, PhD, RDN

Sheryl is a data-driven PhD Scientist, Dietitian, and a firm believer that our environment dictates many of our behaviors and choices. She has worked with corporate clients to create spaces and wellness programming that makes sustainable choices easy for employees, by harnessing the power of choice architecture. Her sustainability approach prioritizes and nourishes the long term health of people, the planet, and the business (productivity, retention, focus).

Sheryl received her MS & PhD in Atmospheric Chemistry, before pivoting to a career in the Nutritional Sciences (MS, RDN). She has spent the last nine years supporting the global Food Program at Google, translating behavioral science research into food choice architecture solutions.

She is the founder of Foodspace, a choice architecture program for K-12 schools.
