A Decade Climbing Hemp Peaks
Prior to joining the Extract Labs team, our experienced ace has summited over a decade in the industry, scaling varied roles with finesse. He’s traversed the terrain, selling extraction equipment, nurturing blooms, and helming multiple hemp labs, marking a journey akin to a thrilling climb. Mark’s ascent into the hemp sphere was fueled by a profound ardor for natural healing and a bona fide passion for cannabis. However, it’s the industry’s ever-evolving face and the inspiring trailblazers he’s met en route that anchors this enthusiast firmly to the hemp peaks for the long haul.
Embracing the last year at Extract Labs, Mark has seen his sales role evolve within the dynamic hemp industry landscape. His fervor for providing premium cannabinoid products has deepened, finding joy in unveiling innovative offerings to eager consumers seeking meticulously crafted hemp goods. Beyond the sales realm, Mark thrives while scaling indoor gym walls or conquering mountainsides, finding solace in moments with Terp, his beloved pup, or crafting vibrant tie-dyes. Reflecting on past wisdom, Mark advises their younger self: “We suffer more in imagination than reality. Don’t stress over things that haven’t happened yet.”

What is your favorite EL product?
I live and die by the Organic Muscle Cream. As an athlete and trainer in my spare time, muscle soreness is something I deal with on a regular basis. I had all but given up on topicals before I started at Extract Labs, now I don’t go anywhere without a tin in my bag.
If you could travel anywhere in the world, where would you go and why?
Japan – I am constantly fascinated by the culture in Japan. There is both an eagerness to progress and grow and a respect for tradition. I would also love to check out the rock climbing culture as well as hit the mountains for some of that world famous JaPOW.
