My name is Katie Bradley and I am co-owner of Well Lit. I first began agricultural work when I was 10 years old working on various farms growing up in Presque Isle, Maine. My passion for learning more about the living world was further cultivated when I went to college for Biology at the University of Maine in Orono and then earned my masters as a Physician Assistant in Boston. I worked as a surgical physician assistant for 4 years in Southern Maine until I was diagnosed with a life-threatening auto-immune disease. When Western Medicine failed to reduce my symptoms, a combination of cannabis, integrative medicine and nutrition proved essential to achieving my optimal state of health.

My work in the Maine Cannabis Community began by providing medical certifications to patients. I then helped research and develop therapeutic cannabinoid profiles and ratios for a medical cannabis company. This all led me to start Well Lit with my phenomenal wife Paisley!

For fun, I am a singer/ songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. If I had to choose a favorite instrument it would be the d’jembe. I love reggae music, funky beats and harmonies!

Through my own journey I have reaped the benefits of cannabinoid medicine and I’m so excited to share this knowledge with all of you!

Well Lit is a physician assistant, queer women owned medically licensed cannabis company based in Southern Maine.  Our focus is to empower patients with knowledge of cannabis and hemp to help them discover the right balance of medicine for themselves.  We focus on cultivating 1:1 THC: CBD ratio flower that provides patients with the positive attributes of cannabis while decreasing anxiety or paranoia.
