- Where were you born? Vancouver BC Canada – St. Paul’s hospital to be exact.
- Where did you go to college? Blanch Macdonald school of Esthetics – Which after attending realized I much rather receive service than give them.
- Favorite hobbies? Infusing cannabis into foods and desserts. Infused Ice cream has been my latest creation & shooting guns have been a new hobby I have picked up since traveling has been banned. If you were to ask me this question last year or even the beginning of this year I would have to say hands down it would be traveling. In 2019 I visited 6 countries and all the provinces of Canada. In Feb of 2020 I was in New Zealand.

- Favorite food? I am a lover of all kinds of food but the way to my heart is with Cheese. Burrata especially or an nice aged cheddar
- What made you decide to enter the cannabis industry? I had a really bad car accident close to 6 years ago which led me down the path of exploring alternative options for pain management. Since then I have been a true believer in Cannabis and left my comfy OTC pharmaceutical job to pursue a career in Cannabis. I have not looked back since. Best decision of my professional life
- Fun fact that we haven’t asked…. My very first pet was a duck.
