Shannon, Founder of Leafcase

 

As a public CannaMom of two, Leafcase™️ was founded out of necessity for convenience and affordability. While creating quality ancillary products, it was also important to me that support is given to those impacted by the “War on Drugs”, as I couldn’t benefit from the plant without recognizing its own story.

Outside of being a mom and business owner, I currently sit on the Advisory Board for Black Cannabis Week by DACO at Temple School of Medicine and am the Team Lead for the Survivors Without Access program in New Jersey by This Is Jane Project.
