Megan Dobro Creating a Safe Canna World

Megan Dobro joins The Canna Mom Show from Westfield, Massachusetts, where she founded  SafeTiva Labs with a team of self-proclaimed science nerds who are on a mission to optimize the relationship between cannabis growers and their lab analysis. She founded  SafeTiva Labs with the goal of raising the bar for scientific integrity, customer service, and ultra-fast turnaround times. Before joining the cannabis industry, Megan was a tenured biology professor at Hampshire College. Through her work at SafeTiva Labs and in her community, Megan promotes diversity and social justice in the sciences and aims to keep humanity at the forefront of business. Megan is, as we say in Massachusetts, wicked smart and holds a PhD in molecular biology from Caltech and a BS in biology from Bridgewater State University.

Congratulations Chef Nick Escoto of the Herbal Creative Kitchen in Westwood, Massachusetts! The winner of the Hemp Guitar by Lamkin Guitars.
