Bio

With over 15 years of hands-on experience in cannabis cultivation, I’ve worked across all growing environments—outdoor, greenhouse and mainly indoor, mastering a variety of nutrient lines, substrates, lighting fixtures and irrigation systems. My journey began with small personal home grows (2-6 lights) and evolved into managing smaller-scale warehouse and trap setups with up to 30 lights, giving me deep insight into both boutique and production-style cultivation.

I spent 7 years working in top-tier hydroponics stores like Hydroponics Inc. and Greencoast, gaining a broad, well-rounded knowledge of cultivation techniques and the products that support them. That retail experience sharpened my ability to troubleshoot and educate growers at all levels, from hobbyists to high-output operators.

Athena has been a game-changer in my cultivation journey. Its data-driven approach and cannabis-specific product design elevated my craft to new heights. Now, working as a Tech Support Agent at Athena, I have the unique opportunity to collaborate with some of the brightest minds in the industry, constantly learning, problem-solving, and sharing knowledge.

Whether you're growing one plant or managing a 1,000-light facility, I bring the same passion, commitment, and practical expertise to help growers succeed and thrive. Cannabis isn’t just what I do, it’s who I am!
