I am currently advocating for a number of controversial topics and that is why I'm often considered to be the black sheep of the drug policy community in Denver.I started my career lobbying in 2018 with an internship with the Southern Colorado Cannabis Council in January 2018.I have been distributing naloxone on the streets of Denver since 2019.I am not currently able to take on anymore projects at the moment. Most recently I made sure that recovery residents must have a policy in place allowing residents of sober livings to be able to use medical cannabis in lieu of prescription drugs if their doctor believes the risks outweigh the benefits and acknowledges that they are in recovery.
