My background

I’m the founder of Herb - the largest and most engaged cannabis community in the world of over 14 million people.

Our mission is to change the way the world views cannabis.

Herb is backed by legends such as Tobi Lütke (Founder & CEO, Shopify), Harley Finkelstein (President, Shopify), Dave Morin (Creator of Facebook Platform), Kevin Colleran (Employee #8 at Facebook), Ken Lerer (BuzzFeed, Group Nine), and Joe Montana (Hall of Fame Quarterback).
‍
In 2012, I co-founded the first technology bootcamp in Canada called Bitmaker. We trained full-stack software engineers and got them jobs at companies like Shopify, Facebook, and IBM. Over the course of 3 years we trained over 3,000 software engineers.

Bitmaker was acquired by General Assembly.
