What is your cannabis origin story?

I tried cannabis for the first time when I was in college and it really helped me when I needed to grind and study for my classes. After college I used flower to calm my mind after work and I used it before & after physical activities for quicker recoveries.

What did you do before this and how did it prepare you for your role today? 

I was an E-Commerce Associate for an outdoor gear company for a couple of years and worked at a high-end restaurant for 5 years. Here at CAC we pride ourselves on our customer service and I believe that my previous roles have exposed me to a wide range of consumers and unique situations that has better prepared me to assist patients today.

What is your strain of choice?

Brownie Scout or Dream Lotus.

What is your favorite edible? 

Our Cake Pops are very delicious!

Favorite delivery method? 

I prefer smoking, but I love our Slate line.

What is the most interesting thing you’ve learned about cannabis recently?

I haven’t seen delta-8 THC products anywhere other than here at CAC and I’m very glad that we started producing those products. Everyone reacts differently to cannabis, but any product with delta-8 THC in it has done wonders for me personally. If you’ve ever wondered about the benefits of delta-8 THC you should definitely come by and visit us!

How do you ensure first time visitors are comfortable with their first dispensary experience?

Coming from Birmingham, Al, I remember how much of a culture shock it was for me to even be in a dispensary. Whenever new patients enter the dispensary I keep in mind that this can be a culture shock for others and it can easily be overwhelming, so I make sure to go over cannabis information at the patient’s pace to ensure their first experience is a pleasant one.

What do you do for fun? 

I love hiking and traveling.

Where do you go to learn more about cannabis?

Leafly, Merry Jane, BostonTreesReddit, and various cannabis magazines.

What is the coolest new cannabis-related gadget you’ve seen recently?

The PuffCo Peak is pretty nifty!

What’s your favorite CAC product right now? 

My favorite product is the 1:1 Delta-8 THC:CBD Tincture.

Taunton Gazette: Mozzone Boulevard facility first in Taunton to get retail marijuana license

“The sale of recreational, retail marijuana in the city is one step closer to becoming something real.

“I think it was historic,” said Glenn McElfresh, referring to the 9-to-1 vote taken by the City Council on Tuesday night to approve a license to operate a retail-pot business on Mozzone Boulevard.

McElfresh, who describes himself as compliance officer for Commonwealth Alternative Care, was one of a handful of representatives of the company who sat down with the council’s police and license committee.

The full council later in the evening voted to approve the first-of-its-kind license request…
