I am a dedicated and self-motivated professional with a strong desire to secure a rewarding position in the cannabis industry. My passion for marijuana as a medicine comes from my own struggle with Crohn’s disease and I have over 3 years of successful experience in cannabis cultivation and production. Amongst other things, I recently acquired multiple certifications as a Master Grower, Indoor Soil Grower, and Budtender from reputable online training institutions, and I possess a diverse understanding of different strains, medicinal effects, growing mediums, climactic controls, harvesting, trimming, curing, and various other applicable techniques and methods. In addition, I have a diverse background in equipment maintenance and repair, I have set up and managed successful grow rooms, and I have been consistently commended for my perseverance and willingness to learn.
