We Are the Industry is an ongoing series featuring Dutchie employees with deep experience in the cannabis industry. Dutchie's employees care about the industry because we are the industry.

‍

Which cannabis companies have you worked for?

‍

4 years at Earth's Healing Dispensary in Tucson, AZ, starting as a budtender and finished as GM

‍

What did you like most about working with cannabis?

‍

I love the fast-paced nature of the industry and how quickly it evolves. This constant change forces us to be innovative and adaptable. I have a deep personal passion for cannabis, which makes working in this field especially rewarding.

‍

What have you learned moving from plant touching work to tech?

‍

In a plant-touching environment, the focus is typically on adhering to state-specific compliance regulations and following company SOPs. Transitioning into cannabis tech has required me to broaden my knowledge, learning about regulations across all states and understanding a variety of company SOPs. This shift has taught me to adapt my thinking to meet the unique needs of each client.

‍

What’s your advice for those starting out in cannabis?

‍

My advice is to never hesitate to show your passion for the cannabis industry and the plant itselfβ€”passion drives change. Stay flexible, as things can shift rapidly in this field.
