Over the past 15 years, Bo has formed relationships in the International Cannabis Community and medical arena that continue to breakdown the stigma of the Medical Marijuana community by articulating the benefits of cannabis in medicine, textiles, biofuels, agriculture, and other overlooked aspects of this miracle plant to Dr’s and Healthcare Providers to assist inpatient care.
