Summary

I moved across the country in order to pursue a career in the cannabis industry. Since involving myself in the industry, my love and knowledge for the plant have exponentially grown. Throughout my journey, i have gained valuable hands-on experience in various areas, including cultivation, management, knowledge of the market and its current trends. This has allowed me to build a strong foundation in industry best practices, regulations, and customer relations.

My adaptability and commitment have enabled me to thrive in a fast-paced, evolving market, and I have developed a keen understanding of both the buisness and community aspects of cannabis. I am now focused on further honing my expertise in retail sales and management.
