Her husband passed away before the garden was completed, and in memory of him and his fight, she took on the project despite no prior knowledge of cannabis, horticulture or facility operations. Since his death, she has worked on creating the indoor project and looks to expand it outdoors, as well as into the recreational market. In addition to developing this project, she participates in Breast Cancer Awareness, Campus Crusade for Christ, Food for the Hungry and the American Cancer Society. Furthermore, she is an honored member of The International Women’s Leadership Association, recognized for her contribution to family, career and community.
