Rachel’s passion for cannabis is fueled by her personal experiences as a cannabis patient. At the age of 21 Rachel was injured in a near-fatal car accident that left her with debilitating chronic pain. At the suggestion of a friend, Rachel tried cannabis to help manage her pain when traditional pharmaceuticals failed to provide the quality of life she desired. With the very first dose, cannabis dramatically changed her experience of life. And as they say, the rest is history. Today, Rachel continues to live a fulfilling life, with the support of cannabis. In addition to her work with global brands, Rachel uses her platforms to advocate for the inclusion of women in the business of cannabis around the globe.
