About
With over 6 years of experience as a hemp entrepreneur and farmer, I am passionate about creating a sustainable future where humans develop a more symbiotic relationship with the earth. I lead Hemp Republic, an all-hemp company that innovates and manufactures hemp fabrics, papers, protein, and oil. I also co-founded Hemis, a venture that focuses on organic farming and tissue culture, researching the best techniques and practices for growing amazing organic vegetables and fruits. As a former marketing and advertising professional, I have the skills and credentials to promote and grow my businesses in the digital and social media space. I am driven by the vision of harnessing the potential of hemp and other natural resources to solve many of the problems our planet and its inhabitants face today.
