Behind the Greens

Both Annie and Gina know firsthand how health struggles can shape the way we live. With age, wisdom, and experience, they’ve come to see food as true medicine — and now they bring that philosophy to every plate, every salad, and every conversation. This knowing is the 'gem' of life.  

Annie Tevelin — Founder

Annie Tevelin is a beauty and wellness entrepreneur driven by the belief that what we put on and in our bodies has the power to transform how we feel. As the founder of SkinOwl, a clean beauty brand rooted in transparency and ritual, Annie has spent over a decade helping people nourish their skin and confidence through plant-powered products. Her personal journey with cystic acne sparked her dedication to ingredient integrity and whole-body wellness.

With her newest venture, Gem Jolie, Annie brings that same ethos to the table — literally. By partnering with local farmers and creating vibrant, nutrient-rich salads, she bridges skincare, self-care, and food as medicine, helping her community glow from the inside out.

Gina D'Orazio  — Founder 

Gina is the creative force behind Clean Cuisine by Gina, a food philosophy and lifestyle rooted in the joy of simple, nourishing meals. With a passion for whole, unprocessed ingredients and a knack for making clean eating approachable, Gina has built a community around the idea that healthy food should be both delicious and sustainable.

Through her recipes, sold-out dinner experiences and classes, Gina empowers people to reconnect with the power of real food — food that supports energy, longevity, and everyday vitality. Her mission is to show that clean cuisine isn’t about restriction, but about abundance, flavor, and feeling your best.
