My journey into cannabis cultivation began in my 20s with a passion for trimming, rooted in California's cannabis community. Working across renowned regions like Sonoma, Mendocino, Lake, Humboldt, Trinity counties in California, and Josephine County in Oregon, I mastered large-scale organic greenhouse growing techniques.In 2013, I stepped into the role of head grower in Mendocino, and by 2016, I was cultivating cannabis independently on my property-- Feral Flower Farm. Relocating to New York in 2019, I embarked on a new chapter, pursuing a degree in Sustainable Farming and Food Systems while co-founding Sterling Sunset Farm, a hemp farm in northern New York, alongside my father.Simultaneously, I began my journey with Ithaca Organics in 2019, overseeing their greenhouse and vegetable cultivation operations. I played a key role in transitioning the farm to hemp growing and now cannabis, leveraging my expertise to ensure a successful transition and continued growth for the company.
