Our brand is an ode to simpler times, when weed was just weed and joints were passed around to old pals and new ones. When neighbors knew each other by name and community meant something. I helped build the Old Pal brand as the first employee, and led our business development and go to market initiatives including state expansion.

As a co-op for Sport in Society we worked with major sport leagues and volunteer organizations and used sports as a vehicle to talk about societal issues. We worked with the MLB, NBA, the US Military, amongst other organizations to run programs like Mentors in Violence Prevention. I interned throughout my school years and spent my time within the Boston Public School system working with both Athletics and implementing the MVP program with high school students. Mentors in Violence Prevention (MVP) is one of the original gender violence, sexual harassment, and bullying prevention programs.
