With ACS for over a year now and “loving every minute” Robbin exemplifies the Power of Positivity and shares the Power of Cannabis! So helpful to ACS, she is always upbeat, full of life, and willing to lend a hand, whether that be in her home role in Production, or assisting Ben in the Kitchen.
Says Jenny, Production Manager “Robbin is a nurturer, exudes positivity, gives it her all every day and is willing to help anyone at any point. A true team player and a valued member of the Production Dept, she lifts up others and encourages all to let their true, best selves shine. She’s a good soul.
What do you enjoy about ACS? I very much enjoy the fact that I get to contribute positively to the lives of our patients. It brings me a lot of joy to know that the product I help to produce is making someone else’s life better.
What draws you to Medical Cannabis? What drew me to medical cannabis is the fact that it has the ability to truly change lives and create a better quality of life for individuals with different health struggles.
What do you enjoy about your position? My favorite thing about the position I hold within ACS is the fact that I have the opportunity to see every aspect of production. It is so exciting to be able to see cannabis go from a living plant, to a carefully packaged eighth, pre-roll, or concentrate. If I had to choose a favorite product to work with, I would have to say Sour Banana Sherbert due to how beautiful the buds look and smoke.
As a patient, what products do you find helpful? How has cannabis helped you? The products that have helped me most at ACS would have to be the menthol balm, as well as The Black in any form. The Black is the best cannabis that I have ever consumed for pain and anxiety. Cannabis has truly changed my life in the best of ways. It has made me far less anxious and has helped immensely with different pains I’ve experienced due to the lingering effects of past injuries. It is very nice to be able to do the things you love without hurting physically or mentally.
What is something surprising about cannabis that someone who hasn’t consumed before might not know? The most surprising thing about cannabis that the uninitiated might not know is that it can help curb your appetite due to the presence of THCV. Most people who have never used cannabis assume that it will make them want to eat but that is not necessarily true.
What are your favorite ACS products? My absolute favorite products at ACS would have to be both our balm and our incredible concentrates. I have never been disappointed by any of our products, but our balm and concentrates are my go-to items.
What do you enjoy doing in your spare time? In my spare time I love to make art in all forms. It is my other great love and passion alongside cannabis.
Anything else you’d like to add? Hopes/dreams for medical cannabis? One of my biggest hopes and dreams for the medical cannabis industry would be for doctors to become more involved. I believe it would benefit society to have more information about the positive effects of this medicine. The other great hope I have for medical cannabis is that someday we might be able to use the waste to create packaging or other useful items. It would be beautiful to be able to use every part of the plant and have a major impact on the planet by using waste.
