from THE founder
High, nice to meet you! I’m a Michigan native, born in Lansing. I’ve always had an overwhelming passion for helping others. I became a caregiver in the Michigan Medical Marijuana Program in 2016, which gave me the ability to cultivate cannabis for my medical marijuana patients. Immediately I became obsessed with everything cannabis. From cutting the clones, to pressing the rosin, and developing the Ganja Girl brand - I fell in love with the entire process. Throughout my experience as a caregiver, I witnessed firsthand the benefits that this plant has on people, the earth, and the community.
The same amount of passion I put into cultivation, I put into my community. Being a part of the medical marijuana program saved my life in more ways than one. I want everyone (21+) to be able to have access to this plant. I want everyone to have a place they feel comfortable to ask questions and learn more about cannabis. I want everyone to be able to grow this plant and enjoy the benefits, including the professional aspect.
As a woman of color and cannabis advocate, I am tired of rarely seeing folks who look like me own businesses, especially cannabis businesses. So...for me Ganja Girl is more than a cannabis brand. It is a community of strong women, BIPOC, LGBTQ+, entrepreneurs, and all the like-minded folk who aspire to live freely. Ganja Girl isn’t just about great weed. It’s about creating a platform, which will aim to provide resources, support, and equitable opportunities for its community members. Ganja Girl exists to inspire others to chase their dreams without the constraints and limitations of an outdated society; and to eliminate the boundaries we have been taught to live within. I want people who support Ganja Girl to know that their goals are not only achievable, but within reach.
