CRISPIN CLARKE, Cofounder & CEO
Crispin Clarke heralds from a career in community mental health and consumer-facing enterprise digital health. As an experienced healthcare provider, yoga teacher, and life-long environmentalist, he became very interested in the alchemical tradition as a complimentary source of potent and sustainable remedies for holistic wellness. After the Covid-19 shutdown, he first applied the precursor of Nick's Aurora balm to the chronic minor wounds on his waistline from wearing an insulin pump due to his Type 1 diabetes--and he was amazed to notice rapid improvements in his skin's healing, thus beginning his involvement with alchemical skincare. He holds a B.A. in Sociology & Anthropology from Swarthmore College, PA.
The mission of Rare Earth Alchemy, Inc. / REÅLEA® is to improve human health, advance knowledge, and promote the alchemical arts.
