Summary
I’ve been in the cannabis industry since I was 18 years old, started off working off in smoke shops and perfecting my craft and love for helping others. After mastering the knowledge of glass & sales I was able to set a store record of $45,000 in a month. After understanding glass shops, I moved onto cannabis. Throughout this experience, I’ve been able to maintain strong relationships, better my knowledge of products, and quality, along with being able to truly connect with patients and have a true understanding of what they’re going through. With these three skills, I was able to maintain a sales record of $468,750 in 2023. One reason, I have such an extensive knowledge of cannabis is I am mildly physically disabled. Having a mild disability in the cannabis community is a superpower because I’m able to connect with patients and understand their hardships. When a patient feels comfortable with their budtender, It’s easier to provide top-notch service & quality products that could give them a quality of life.
Thank you for the time and consideration. I hope to become a strong asset to the team.
