My name is Dr. Josh Walker, and I’m the founder and owner of Enlivened, an Austin, TX-based company that provides healthy, convenient snacks and drinks. Throughout my career—from my time in the Marine Corps to my PhD in Educational Psychology, while working at UT Austin or Amazon, I’ve always been passionate about understanding how our internal states and external environments influence learning, performance, and overall well-being. Also, as a dad and having taken care of my wife during her battle with cancer, I care deeply about the ingredients in our food and beverages. We can set higher standards for our families and help each other achieve them.
So, I’m on a mission to make it easy for you to offer nutritious nourishment of body and mind wherever you serve our community. That’s why I started this business and partnered with Free Healthy Vending, a company dedicated to transforming snack options in health-conscious locations across the country, including schools, hospitals, community centers, and gyms. We use state-of-the-art, high-quality vending machines stocked with healthier snack and drink options for customers and staff, all at no cost to you.
As the independent, local operator, I personally oversee every aspect of the operation, from installation to ongoing service and restocking. My commitment is to provide exceptional first-class support and intentional product selection to ensure that your place of business receives the best possible vending machine experience.
This movement has already achieved tremendous success in various locations nationwide and around Texas, and I’m thrilled about the opportunity to bring that same impact to our neighborhood. Together, let’s bring joy to life, one snack at a time.
Let me help you help your customers...Get Enlivened!
~Josh
