Andrew Burke

Guest Speaker
Physician Engagement Manager, Trulieve

Andrew is the Physician Engagement Manager for the state of Florida. Andrew, born and raised in the small beach town of Hobe Sound, Florida, grew up spending most of his time playing organized sports, studying, relaxing with his family at the beach, and going on the boat with his friends. Family and community are both fundamental components of his upbringing. Being from a small town, he experienced first hand what a well connected and empowered community can do for its members. Andrew attributes the support he received from his community to the success of his mother’s victory against breast cancer. During his mother’s battle against breast cancer, Andrew began his battle for patient access to medical marijuana here in Florida.

In 2012 he left his small beach town to continue his education in the field of business at Florida State University.

Andrew‘s journey with Trulieve began in February of 2017 in Tallahassee, FL, where he took his first role with the company as a Patient Consultant shortly after graduating with his degree in Risk Management. He spent a year working in the first dispensary in the state, and he continued to develop in the company as a Community Educator for his home town area. In this role, Andrew felt for the first time that he was able to give back to the community that gave his mother the means and hope to survive one of his family’s most trivial times. Now, Andrew oversees and supports the Community Education team across the state.

How CBD Oil Affects Chronic Pain and Inflammation

Thomas DeLauer | Octagon Biolabs CBD, Aug. 2018

“Cytokines are signaling proteins that ultimately recruit inflammation to happen. Cytokines will trigger specific immune cells to release inflammation or actually even reduce inflammation, given the right circumstances. […] CBD actually modulates the cytokine production.”
