Why I started OMO Crisp

Hello! I’m Anna, a German-American health enthusiast, former competitive cyclist, and founder of OMO Crisp.

My journey began with the joy of European bread, connecting me to my roots in Northern Germany. When chronic GI issues led me to adopt a low-FODMAP diet, I had to part with many of my favorite foods. Determined to recreate those flavors in a way that met my new dietary needs, I began experimenting in my kitchen in Sedona. The result was a crisp bread that not only supports gut health but also brings joy to everyone who tries it.

Founding OMO Crisp wasn’t just about creating food—it marked a new chapter in my life. I chose to step away from the fast-paced tech world to build something personally meaningful. With a passion for health, science, and food, I felt it was time to craft something that truly aligned with my values. OMO Crisp is the culmination of that vision—a project that blends my European heritage with the vibrant spirit of the Southwest.

The name “OMO” comes from my early childhood phrase “Anna alleine!” (Anna On My Own!), symbolizing my journey from corporate life to running a purpose-driven business. At its heart, OMO Crisp is more than just a snack; it’s an invitation to live intentionally, nourish your body, and thrive. Each bite reflects my commitment to mindful living and sustainable practices.

Join me on this journey of wellness and joy. Guten Appetit!
