Today he finds himself leading Fresh Prep, the Vancouver-based meal kit service with co-founders Husein Rahemtulla and Becky Brauer. A recipient of BC Business\u2019 2018 30 Under 30 awards, Dhruv graduated from the University of British Columbia focusing his studies on Finance and Logistics.<\/p>\n<p>Prior to starting Fresh Prep, Dhruv worked an array of jobs. From part-time security guard to equity research associate, each role brought new perspectives and innovative ideas he was able to bring to Fresh Prep as the business grew. He loves continuing to build Fresh Prep. With what little time he has outside of growing Fresh Prep, he enjoys playing tennis and continues to make up diets for himself that don\u2019t make it past day one.<\/p>\n<p>Hope you can make it!<\/p>\n<p>Regards,<\/p>\n<p><strong>Paulina\u00a0Gonzalez Miranda<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0MFRE<br \/>\nEducational Researcher<br \/>\nFaculty of Land and Food Systems<br \/>\nThe University of British Columbia | Vancouver Campus<br \/>\n<a href=\"mailto:paulina.gonzalez@ubc.ca\">paulina.gonzalez@ubc.ca<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/mfre.landfood.ubc.ca\/\">https:\/\/mfre.landfood.ubc.ca\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>MFRE Speaker Series Speaker:\u00a0Dhruv Sood, Fresh Prep | Co-Founder Topic:\u00a0Helping Busy People Create World-Class Dinners.
