@Jon Gray:

Done - see Special:Diff/1006114152. The Reuters source is sufficient, so I've just used that one. I've added "CEO of ChromaDex" to the "Title" parameter of the infobox, per guidelines at Template:Infobox person (see the Jeff Bezos article for a similar usage). Feel free to {{ping}} me if you have any minor questions regarding this edit (but substantial edits should be put in another edit request). Thank you for your contributions.

@DanCherek: Thank you! Jon Gray (talk) 15:00, 11 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@DanCherek: My apologies as I should have thought about this first time around, but might it be possible to incorporate a mention of him currently serving as CEO of ChromaDex at the end of the first paragraph in the lead section? Proposed sentence is as follows: “He currently serves as CEO of ChromaDex.”^[1]. Thanks again for your time and consideration. Jon Gray (talk) 16:24, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Jon Gray I've added it to the lead, with a slight rewording (see MOS:CURRENTLY). Best, DanCherek (talk) 17:39, 13 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
