BUILT FOR PERFORMANCE. DESIGNED FOR REAL LIFE.
Coalition Kitchen was created by athletes and food professionals who understand how difficult it can be to eat consistently when work, training, and everyday life compete for your time.
OUR STORY
Busy schedule? Training for something? Just trying to eat better? We get it.
Coalition Kitchen was built to solve a problem we experienced ourselves.
Balancing training, work, and everything else in life makes it hard to stay consistent with nutrition. We saw firsthand how much performance, recovery, and day-to-day energy depend on what you eat, but also how time-consuming it is to shop, cook, portion, and track it all.
So we built a better option.
Coalition Kitchen combines real cooking with performance-focused nutrition to give you meals that are ready when you are. No extra steps, no guesswork, just food that helps you stay consistent.

MEET THE TEAM
Coalition Kitchen brings together experience in food science, professional kitchens, athletics, nutrition, and customer service.
Max Dorin
Co-OwnerMax is the co-owner of Coalition Kitchen and the driving force behind the company’s menu development and kitchen operations.
Originally from Upstate New York, Max moved to North Carolina to attend North Carolina State University, where he earned a degree in Food Science. He then gained years of hands-on experience working in restaurants and bars.
As a longtime athlete and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt who spent years competing in MMA and BJJ, Max understands how difficult it can be to follow a nutrition plan that is both effective and enjoyable. That experience helped shape Coalition Kitchen’s focus on transparent labeling, balanced nutrition, and bold flavors inspired by cuisines from around the world.
His goal is to create food that supports performance while remaining approachable for athletes, professionals, and families.
Carl Escriva
Co-OwnerCarl is the co-owner of Coalition Kitchen, where he focuses on brand growth, innovation, and the customer experience.
A lifelong athlete, Carl developed an early understanding of how nutrition affects performance in the weight room, at practice, and in competition. He also developed a passion for cooking at a young age.
During his time at North Carolina State University, Carl was a walk-on football player, competitive bodybuilder, and personal trainer. Those experiences showed him the need for convenient, high-quality food for people balancing performance, health, and demanding schedules.
His focus is helping customers stay consistent without adding more complexity to their daily routines.
Eric Moon
Executive ChefEric is the executive chef at Coalition Kitchen, where he leads culinary operations and menu development for the company’s nutrition-focused meal program.
Raised in a food-focused family, Eric developed a passion for cooking at an early age. His understanding of nutrition grew through sports, where he became interested in how macronutrients support performance and recovery.
Eric began working in Raleigh restaurants after high school, starting as a dishwasher and working his way through every kitchen station. His interest in the relationship between food, health, and well-being eventually aligned with Coalition Kitchen’s approach to whole ingredients and performance-focused cooking.
