About the maker

Hi, I'm the person behind Between the Strains

A little about me, why I built this, and what I hope it does for you.

My story
Why cannabinoid education matters to me.

I'm a passionate cannabinoid user and lifelong learner who deeply believes in the importance of plant education. For four years I managed a local smoke shop, and something remarkable kept happening: the urgent care down the street started sending their patients over to us — to learn what cannabinoids actually do, and to find the right product for what they were going through.

That experience showed me how wide the gap is between medicine and plant knowledge, and how badly people need a place to get straight, fact-checked answers without judgment. Between the Strains is my attempt to be that place — a friendly, honest guide you can pull up anywhere.

Beyond the plant
The rest of who I am.

I'm a poet, a mother, and a wife. I'm a lover of music — it runs through pretty much everything I do.

And I'm a very proud animal mom. My little hamster Sunshine and my two dogs, Rascal and Manny, keep me grounded and remind me every day that the best medicine is often just showing up with love.

What I believe

"Our bodies are built for cannabinoids — all we need to do is provide the key."

We each have an endocannabinoid system woven through our nervous system, our immune system, and nearly every organ. The plant doesn't force anything on us — it just fits a lock that's already there. My goal with Between the Strains is to help you find your key, safely and with real information.

A gentle reminder: I'm not a doctor and Between the Strains is not medical advice. Everything here is educational. Please talk to a licensed clinician before changing any treatment, especially if you take other medications.
