About Mountain Girl Cannabis

From growing up in a small town and becoming the only immediate family member to graduate high school to being ushered out of his dorm during his Freshman year of college on cannabis possession with intent to deal charges to marrying the love of his life at 19 — Josh has always averted the conventional path in life and what is deemed “success.” 

Through the guidance and mentorship of his wife and the work ethic earned from his father, Josh has found his “success” as a contributing member of his community and reliable family member and father. He has had a relationship with cannabis since 12, and looks forward to every opportunity to use his soapbox to remove the stigma of cannabis use and promote its many beautiful benefits, whether they be social, spiritual, medicinal, or otherwise. 

Josh has over 10 years of professional experience in various sales and leadership roles through the banking and insurance industries. Whether as a farm underwriter for a local insurance company or as a branch manager for a local credit union, Josh has always advocated for the people in his community. Most recently, he has served as a commercial insurance producer and has been heavily involved in the cannabis insurance industry, helping many hemp farmers and retailers access and understand the hard-to-place coverage needed to safely operate their businesses. 

These experiences have given Josh the ability to build relationships and make deep connections in the communities in which he serves. He has the great fortune of learning from business owners of virtually every industry segment from Vermont all the way down to the Bronx, and has built a foundation of leadership and risk management practices to help create a safe and successful culture for his team.
