In 2015, I took a leap of faith and entered the cannabis space as it provided a once in a lifetime opportunity to be on the ground floor of a brand-new industry. I believe the plant can help in tremendous ways. Cannabis is going to disrupt many industries; alcohol, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, textiles, plastics, wellness, supplements, natural foods, and the list keeps growing. I entered the space in 2015 (just after Colorado legalized cannabis for adults) with a solution to kids accidentally eating their parent’s edibles by designing a functional and portable storage kit that had a built-in combination lock and kept people complaint with the law. I was accepted into CanopyBoulder's business accelerator, the first for the cannabis industry, and I participated in their first class, five years ago (they’ve had 11 classes since). There I met my mentor, Steve Norman, who later joined full-time. We’re now 5 full-time employees and we’re making lots of progress, it’s been exhilarating and a grind. We believe that working hard for something you don’t care about is call stress, but working hard for something that you love is called passion. We’re passionate about breaking the stigma that cannabis consumers face. We're helping people incorporate cannabis in their lives while allowing them to do it responsibly and to help them avoid the judgment that comes with the tell-tale odors.
