Curaleaf, Llc
As a Founder, Owner and Chief Operating Officer of one of only four grower/processors licensed in Connecticut, Ms. Arrasate and her team created the brand and wrote the application. Post-licensing, she oversaw and orchestrated the completion of a 40,000-square foot indoor production facility from initial build out to full production in under six months. Range of products included: CO2-extracted vaporization oils, concentrates, drops, tinctures, oromucosal sprays, capsules, raw flower and edibles. As acting COO for the company’s first several years in operation, Ms. Arrasate gained expertise in all areas of the commercial production of cannabis-based medicine, including: facility build out, security, compliance, cultivation, harvest, processing, inventory tracking, testing, formulation, manufacture, packaging, delivery, fulfillment, product development, physician education, patient education, dispensary relations, public relations and overall branding. Arrasate successfully exited in 2017 and remains a shareholder of the publicly held Canadian company.
