Hello I have been a Consultant for cannabinoid research and development within laboratory extraction processes for years.
I can help to design and build efficient extraction methods & rooms for facilities to obtain projected goals and exceed
their expectations. I’ve also been growing for 9 years & was the head grower for kush on 66 for the previous year.
I’ve been going through a tough time last few months as I go through oral surgeries for my teeth and would like to open my services to consulting again as it will be much easier to schedule with appointments I will be going to for my surgeries. No negativity thank you.
Positions held relative to extraction/growing:
• CSO (chief science officer).
• Lab Manager.
• Lab technician/ Supervisor.
• Hydrocarbon technician 1,2,&3.
• Distillation technician 1,2,&3.
• Blue print /design builder.
• Supervisor of construction for lab /grow.
• Metal Fabricator.
• Head grower for multiple locations.
Knowledge & tech (not limited to what’s listed):
Media based filtration experience:
• Chromatography (flash chromatography, dcvc, open column, closed column, closed loop.)
• PH remediations.
• CRC ( completely remediate character.)
• Hydrocarbon filtration.
• LLE seperations/ purification.
• Ethanol filtration.
• Some extended knowledge of pesticide/ metal removal.
• In depth knowledge of medias and powders for filtration.
Distillation experience:
• Basic distillation.
• Advanced distillation (more than an average tech).
• Ability to read a multitude of vacuum gauges.
• Water Clear D8 & D9.
• Can perform distillation with wiped film & rolling film as well. If parameters on machine are not suitable
for distillation I can help tune the parameters of the unit to achieve refining at an efficient speed for a
high quality distillate with precise cuts made for each step.
• Clarification of distillate and correction of characterizations. Can take poorly made distillate and refine it to usable product.
Crystallization experience:
• CBD
• CBG
• CBN
• THCA (slow & fast methods)
• i2
Hydrocarbon experience:
• Basic extraction.
• Advanced extraction (more than an average tech.)
• Trouble shoot problems & streamline production.
• I can run two 35lbs column purge labs atlas columns on a 150lb collection all simultaneously. 70lbs of
material at same time. 450-560+ lbs of material per shift.
• I can utilize ETS / 710 snob platform for 10-15lbs column runs x 4 - 6 columns inline with crc & collection
vessel of appropriate size to precisely remediate crc of bio upon input bio quality.
• I learned & used the iron fist platform for extraction as well when I first started, so I have a wide
range of machine platforms that I have been working with for 10+ years.
• I can build and design a fully functioning hydrocarbon closed loop extraction with either active or
passive recovery (I prefer active myself).
• I can blue print your machine to fit the building and county city codes and pass inspections with the
state for peer review.
• I can teach how to post process crude/freshly extracted oil into shatter, sugar, badder, crumble, diamonds/ isolate
& sauce.
• I can also take THCA extracts that aren’t diamonds to make more refined and formed facets or isolate.
• Centrifuge separation for post processing of extracts.
Ethanol washing experience:
• Delta cup platform.
• Ethos platform.
• Panda filter.
• Filtration skids.
• Pig filters.
• Winterization with ethanol and or with methanol.
• Membrane skid.
Hash making experience:
• Bubble hash washing by hand or with machine for fresh frozen and or cured materials.
• Dry ice sifting for fresh frozen and or cured materials.
• Iceless wash methods.
• Air dry technique.
• Freeze drying technique and troubleshooting if problems occur with freeze drying unit.
• Proper separation of microns of hash.
• Rosin pressing.
• Hash prep & post processing.
• Temple ball hash.
• Cannoli hash paper.
• Proper insight on conversion rates of input to hash.
• Proper insight of good material to utilize for solventless extraction.
• Live rosin & cured rosin from a variety of solventless inputs.
• Solvent-less THCA mechanical separation
• Solvent-less cartridge formulations
Formulation related experience:
• proper infusion tek for infusing oils & fat based products to then formulate in all sorts of products from
edibles to topicals and transdermal applications.
• Making transdermal oils, balms, tallows & lotions that can be applied by hand with pump or by roll on
transdermally and massaging the area.
• Ability to calculate the ratios needed for precise infusion mg/ dose with small batch and large batch
formulations.
• Formulations for concentrates and pens with a wide variety of SKUs and input products for post
processing the concentrates.
• Infusing a variety of different baked edibles and drinks with shelf stable products & a variety of vegan/
health food options.
• Gummies, hard candy, baked goods( cookies, brownies, muffins, pies, cheesecake, bread loaf, creamer,
honey, teas, seltzers, juices, syrups, etc)
• Can infuse hot foods that need to be prepared for a multi course meal setting.
• Nano infusion & or liposome infusion for liquid based infusions based upon how fast onset would be
preferred.
Grow related experience:
• Sanitary germination/propagation SOPs
• Attentive hand watering & automation tech
• Proper times and sections for topping to make proper structure for plant to support heavy yields.
• How to obtain steady VPD for optimal plant health and vigorous growth.
• Transplanting with no transplant shock to get ahead in veg times.
• Brix stacking and how to gauge it.
• Organic no till/ top dress/ KNF OR synthetic salt/liquid base nutrient growing & fine tuning recipe for plant optimization.
• IPM regimens of all pests and issues.
• Proper care & SOPs for keeping moms on large scale.
• Hermetically sealed environment.
• positive or negative pressure rooms per build request.
How to properly calculate ppfd/ par and applicate Co2 for optimal plant growth and uptake of nutrients.
• Crop steering methods.
• Foliar applications & proper times when to utilize them.
• Ability to identify pests/ issues and remediate them within a timely manner.
• Complete restoration of grow facility, including black mold restorations.
• Irrigation/ fertigation installation & blue printing.
• SOPs for proper sanitation throughout facilities.
I’m sure there is much more I can’t think of off the top of my head. If any of these categories fancy your team & yourself feel free to get ahold of me so we can discuss further how I may be able to help you level up.
