Dr. Trillitye (Dr. Trill) Paullin, PhD, is a distinguished cellular and molecular biologist with a focus on the molecular components of human milk. She is an Operation Iraqi Freedom Veteran, currently serving her 19th year in the Army National Guard, and is the CEO and co-founder of Free to Feed. Dr. Trill's passion for empowering parents on their lactation journey was ignited after her own daughters experienced food reactions to proteins transferred from her diet to breast milk. Determined to provide the research, resources, and support she lacked during that challenging time, she founded Free to Feed alongside Dr. LaChiana Hamilton, DNP. Dr. Trill's groundbreaking work in breastfeeding and food reactivity has garnered grant funding from renowned institutions, including the National Science Foundation. She has collaborated with renowned research institutions such as Stanford University and the University of Idaho, contributing significantly to the expanding body of research surrounding lactation. Her innovative contributions include the invention of the first at-home test kit to detect allergens in human milk, which is currently in the manufacturing phase. This test kit is part of Free to Feed's comprehensive offering, which includes an educational support package, a tracking app, and personal consultations, all designed to support and empower parents on their lactation journey.
