TYLER WAITE, Co-Founder

After nearly a decade in the biotech industry, Tyler Waite co-founded TheoBru™ with a mission to bring the power of biochemistry into everyday life.

Having witnessed firsthand how the biotech world often prioritized speed to market and profit over genuine human impact, Tyler felt called to take a different path—one that focused on enhancing well-being, not just margins. This led to the creation of TheoBru™, a unique coffee product designed to energize your day while helping you reduce caffeine dependence. Drawing on years of expertise in biochemistry and physiology, Tyler co-developed TheoBru™ as a smarter, more sustainable way to fuel the body—without the crash. For Tyler, this really isn’t just a beverage; it’s a better way to live with increased clarity and focus.

Dr. Ciaran Murphy, MD, MPH, CO-founder

Dr. Ciaran Murphy is a medical doctor and public health researcher who discovered the benefits of TheoBru™ firsthand during the rigorous demands of medical school.

Since he first began drinking TheoBru™ with co-founder Tyler in 2020, Ciaran has used it as a long-lasting energy source that delivers clarity and focus through long days of studying and hospital shifts. Drawing from his research background, Ciaran understands the risks associated with excessive caffeine consumption and believes it's time to challenge the status quo of the caffeine industry. While he acknowledges that caffeine is not all bad and certainly has its place, he's passionate about offering a healthier, more sustainable alternative. Ciaran is excited to share TheoBru™ with the world.
