You cultivate the cannabis. I’ll cultivate the numbers.
I help cannabis cultivators, manufacturers, and processors understand their costs, plan cash needs, and evaluate the financial decisions behind their operations. My advisory work connects pricing, production, and capital commitments to the financial health of the whole business.
Knowing your product and knowing how to run a growing business are different skills. I help bridge that gap with patient explanations, practical financial guidance, and accountability to the goals you choose. We work toward a business that supports your life as well as your next stage of growth.
Experienced financial leadership. Connected industry expertise.
I bring 29 years of construction cost accounting and project management accounting experience, alongside controller and business operations responsibilities, to my advisory work. Through the DOPE CFO VIP network, I also have access to industry thought leaders and specialized professionals whose perspectives can help inform decisions about cultivation, production, technology, and business growth.
Why this work is personal.
My belief in cannabis as medicine is deeply personal, shaped by my mother’s illness and my daughter’s cancer diagnosis in infancy. Those experiences drive my commitment to the people and businesses in this industry.
Understand what drives profitability
I help you examine fixed and variable costs, understand their effect on margins, and evaluate pricing against market conditions. That gives you a clearer basis for deciding what to produce, where to focus resources, and when to adjust.
Plan cash around operations
I look at when operating costs occur, when payments are expected, and how vendor and customer terms affect available cash. Forecasting helps identify funding needs before they become urgent and makes the distinction between revenue, profit, and cash clear.
Make informed equipment and expansion decisions
I evaluate buying versus leasing, new versus used equipment, and financing terms against expected demand and operational capacity. The analysis considers both the opportunity and the financial exposure if plans change.
Prepare for capital conversations
I help organize financial information, develop forecasts, and evaluate funding options and terms. Establishing relationships with potential capital providers early creates time to prepare and assess what fits the business.
