“I’ve prided myself on my ability to adapt and thrive in chaos, and the cannabis industry has given me more confidence and understanding of my abilities and opportunities. Representation is the simplest way to say it- ultimately being in this industry brings me a sense of self. Women belong in this space, our physical responses to cannabis are unique and we are finding different ways to address, treat and navigate medical conditions or life changes unique to women. In my work, I am continuously aware of my representation as a woman and queer woman.”

Naomi has worked in the cannabis industry for 5 years, and been with Proper since the very beginning! Her favorite Proper product is the Honeybee Sour Watermelon Passionfruit gumdrops. 

“I started at Proper when there were no walls in our dispensaries, our brands were still just concepts on paper, and we worked from the floor of a basement with big ideas and even bigger determination. There was no roadmap—just a shared belief in what this industry could become and a willingness to build it from the ground up. The creativity, resilience, and collaboration women have brought to cannabis have not only helped businesses grow, but have also helped define the culture of the industry itself. Seeing so many talented women build, innovate, and lead with intention has been deeply inspiring—and being part of that story is something I’m incredibly proud of.”

And beyond that, I want to use this opportunity to help shape an industry where more women have a seat at the table, not just as employees, but as leaders and decision-makers. Our industry is constantly evolving, which has pushed me to stay flexible and continuously grow. But what's had the biggest impact on me is the collaboration with my team, colleagues across various departments, wholesale customers, and industry peers. Those relationships have been incredibly valuable, both professionally and personally.”
