Former NFL player that has spent the last 5 years fighting the good fight for Cannabis awareness. This time was spent gaining knowledge about dispensaries, branding, product placement, growing indoor and out, genetics, searching for the proper environment. Storage, packing and delivering for online surfaces and security for Cannabis markets.
My objective is to continue my work in the Cannabis industry, this is truly my passion and has never seemed like labor to me. I will take any role very personal and with much gratitude.
