Throughout his 17 years at Bob’s Red Mill, Trey has played an instrumental role at the company, beginning in accounting before rising to CFO and then CEO.

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE BOB’S RED MILL?
I love this question! I was looking for a sense of purpose in my work life. Like most people, I needed a paying job but I wanted more. I wanted to feel like my career was making the people and world around me a better place. What better way to do this than to work at Bob’s Red Mill where we inspire joy with wholesome foods.
WHAT’S THE BEST ADVICE YOU’VE EVER BEEN GIVEN?
I was told that, “I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be.” Everyone has adversity: it is how we handle it that matters.
WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE BOB'S RED MILL PRODUCT?
I really love our oatmeal. I am especially proud of how good our oatmeal is compared to the brand I grew up eating.
