AW: Tell us about your professional journey starting with how you made the decision to go into the cannabis industry after getting your degree in International Business from Carleton.
ML: A lot has happened since Carleton! The journey of learning started at Mistral Venture Partners, a venture capital firm focused on seed stage investments, as an analyst. I fell in love with the entrepreneurial spirit and interacting with groups taking ideas to the next level in new or disruptive spaces. I got a peek into what it took to have resilience as a startup, fundraising as a private company, and the foundational pieces that all companies need.
