Taylor is the Manager of the Surterra located in Jacksonville, FL. They have been with the company since December of 2020, and has been an advocate for cannabis since 2013.

Taylor first started using cannabis to help with anxiety, OCD, and chronic pain. This was in a state that didn’t have medical marijuana, which made it harder to fully know what product they were getting or if it would even help their ailments. Then they had a family member move to Florida and experience true medical cannabis, and Taylor saw how life changing it was for that family member. Taylor decided to move to Florida and work at a dispensary and be immersed in as much knowledge as they could.

Taylor’s background in retail management and customer service helped them educate patients and co-workers with confidence, while sharing their personal journey to help show insight and understanding for anyone struggling to find the right medicine. When Taylor is medicated, they love to exercise, be out in nature, and enjoy a quiet night in with their pup!
