After discovering CBD in early 2019, I decided I needed to open a store to spread awareness. It so drastically changed my life for the better— reducing years of chronic pain, improving my sleep and mood tremendously. I am incredibly passionate about the wonders of CBD, and intend to make it more readily available to my immediate community (if you're local or passing through- visit us at 180 Bedford Street in Stamford, CT) as well as nationwide through this online store. It is in my nature to research everything. I quit a 25 year career doing investment research to open the store.For better or worse, I have many ailments that CBD has helped relieve. I've had 3 back surgeries and have been in chronic pain for 30 years. I was on Oxycodone when I found CBD. It helped me get off that. CBD has allowed me to stop taking several pharmaceuticals. I have PTSD related to childhood trauma. CBD has improved my sleep by reducing the intensity of my dreams. After spending a year sourcing and vetting the very best US CBD products (rejecting 90% of the products sampled), our customers never have to question whether our CBD library is safe and effective. The CBD Curators carry only the most honest and quality products, so that a customer can focus solely on how CBD might too, change their life. I am constantly on the hunt for new, better and cheaper products. I think of the CBD industry like the wine industry. It's a craft industry, not a mass production industry.

I have been doing short sale research for 25 years. Through that time, I've developed several proprietary strategies and screening techniques used to minimize risk. I never recommend the high flyers. I usually wait until a stock has already rolled to reduce the risk of squeezing my customers. I write several reports on stocks I cover. When feasible, I am deep digger, I look up everything management doesn't want investors to see and know. I like balance sheet shorts where debt is strangling the company. I like shorting fallen stars--IPOs that lose their appeal and fade off into the sunset slowly. I look for companies going through a competitive landscape change or product transition. I am most known for work on for-profit education. There was fraud everywhere. I believe short sellers need to be more trading oriented than the bulls. I am definitely more trading oriented, ever seeking to take profits while they are there. My experience is my biggest asset at this point. I've seen every gimmick and trick a corrupt management can pull to make earnings. Rob graduated from the American University with a Bachelor degree in Political Science.
