Thats me!

Hi, I am Stephanie (Stephie) Norris and my husband (Josh) and I started Green Brothers Juice & Smoothie Co. together with his 2 brothers back in 2014.

Josh and I met in college and bonded immediately over our love of endurance sports. We ran a 1/2 marathon together, then a marathon, then completed an Ironman Race together in 2013 and most recently completed a 55 mile ultra run.

My career path took me into working for a doctor for 10 years doing clinical research while Josh was getting his feet under him with the juice bar. But, I always knew my passion was not pharmaceuticals, instead it was using food as medicine. Thankfully, I now have the opportunity to do that.

During the course of our training for endurance events, we knew that nutrition could make or break us. As college kids with busy schedules, smoothies were the easiest way to get high quality nutrients FAST. We started testing out some recipes and found some that were really tasty and packed a nutrient dense punch!

We ended up opening our first location in uptown Charlotte in 2014 just 2 weeks before our first child was born (Talk about busy). And now we have 5 locations, 12 wholesale accounts, and 3 kids!

I recently decided to study nutrition as more than just a passion and went through continuing education to get my Nutrition Coaching Certificate to be able to help people one on one.

I look forward to sharing my knowledge and experience with you!
