In the role of Strategic Advisor, I established alliances with local farms and customers in order to source and deliver high-quality products including bulk flowers, trim, and inventory management. I provided support in leading a team of six technicians including monitoring the quality of products they manufacture while ensuring compliance with legal requirements. Notable accomplishments: I achieved over $7 million in revenue within seven months through the sales of flower and trim produced by two distinct California farms. Additionally, I performed weekly cost analyses to stay on top of sales trends, projects budgets, and cash counts.

I orchestrated sales strategies resulting in $6 million in revenue within a five-month span through wholesale transactions. I secured exclusive partnerships to streamline material procurement and enhance supply chain efficiency, maintaining an average weekly spend and sales of $400,000. My role extended to driving operational initiatives, overseeing cash and procurement, and coordinating activities within the Distribution Centre. I negotiated with farm stakeholders for material acquisition, procured cannabis from various sources, managed pickups, deliveries, and maintained inventory records. Additionally, I ensured compliance with regulatory standards, and post-sales, I upheld quality through laboratory testing for distillate, flowers, and trim based on bulk and cash transactions.
