🌿🖌✨

In 2016, I founded Make & Mary as a place to experience the world of cannabis culture through art and design, with a focus on self-care. Our workshop series were the first of their kind and have been recognized by Forbes, Condé Nast UK, MJ Business, the JTW Intelligence Report, Well + Good and more.

In 2017 I drew on my experience as a folk herbalist to create a line of beauty, wellness and lifestyle products that center on raising our vibrations and self love. We are: Organic, Vegan and Full Spectrum and believe that beauty can be holistic, feminine, and radical all at once.

In 2020 I opened up the Make & Mary flagship store in Portland, Oregon.
