TJ Harrell

I was born and raised in the vibrant city of Tampa, FL, where I spent my childhood playing Little League Baseball for the West Tampa Yankees and football for the North Tampa Rams. My educational journey began at Pizzo Elementary and Greco Middle School, leading to a scholarship to Tampa Catholic High School in 2010. During my time there, I excelled in both football and track, reaching the state championships for the 200-meter and 4x400 relay. I was also honored to be ranked number 74 as an ATH in the ESPN Top 150 for high school football.

My athletic pursuits earned me a dual scholarship to Michigan State University, where I was privileged to be part of a Big Ten Championship-winning team. I had the opportunity to play in the 2014 Cotton Bowl against Baylor, the 2015 playoff appearance against Alabama, and the 2018 San Diego Bowl against Washington State, including participating in a historic play against Michigan in 2015, which was voted the No. 1 college football play in college football history. Following my undergraduate success, I pursued a graduate degree, starting at Arkansas Tech University and earning my MBA with a focus in marketing from the Florida Institute of Technology.

My career in the cannabis industry began with a marketing role at a cannabis cultivation, extraction, and packaging plant, where I gained comprehensive knowledge of cultivation techniques and processes. I also expanded my skills in management, negotiation, and administration through various roles, including door-to-door sales and serving as a General Manager at NCG Movie Theater.

With a vision to revolutionize the medical marijuana industry, I have gathered a dedicated team to create a platform that empowers both patients and physicians. My mission is to honor the medical roots of cannabis, ensuring that doctors are celebrated for their contributions. Together, we strive to address the source of ailments, not just the symptoms, and make a meaningful impact in the field.
