Liz Mason is the Director of Operations at Aurum Labs and the Founder of Aurum Hemp. Both companies focus on compliance testing for Marijuana and Industrial Hemp products. They were one of the first certified testing labs in Colorado and in the US. They are USDA , ISO 17025 accredited, and Colorado state certified. Liz is originally from Tulsa, Oklahoma. She came to Colorado in 2002 to attend college at Fort Lewis College and later Graduate School at Colorado State University. Her background is in chemistry, microbiology, and social equity. Her hope is that testing will provide a means to address public health and safety concerns, and aid in debunking the stigma around cannabis use and provide the education needed to end the war on drugs.
