“I’ve always had a deep-rooted entrepreneurial spirit. For example, over the years I have dabbled in the Dot Com boom, the renewable energy boom, I even had a business when I was a junior in high school. I’ve always had this real desire for business development. A desire to be on the cutting edge of entrepreneurial efforts”
He co-founded The Arcview Group in 2010 with Steve DeAngelo. The company has been instrumental in compelling the legalisation of Cannabis in the US and has facilitated funding for over 70 cannabis-related companies.
