I am an author, photographer, and social media editor who has documented the evolutionary cannabis industry for the past decade. Born in Denver, Colorado, today I reside in Long Beach, California. My career includes roles at The Denver Post and The Cannabist, which was the first cannabis publication ever founded by a Pulitzer Prize-winning daily newspaper. My reporting grew to include an industry-focus at Marijuana Business Daily and Hemp Industry Daily, where I led social media coverage for MJBizCon, the largest cannabis business conference series in the world.
