SPEAKER BIO
Leah Heise is an experienced executive, regulatory attorney and thought leader in the Cannabis Industry. She has held several C-Level positions (CXO, 4Front Ventures; CAO, Ascend Wellness Holdings; President, Chesapeake Integrated Health Institute; and, CEO, Women Grow & Gemini Twin Consulting, LLC) in the industry and has successfully exited four companies; two through acquisition, and two through IPO. She is passionate about creating an inclusive environment for all participants in the industry.
Leah is currently a Constellation advisor to Kearney, a top tier CPG and transformative management consulting firm bringing their operational expertise to cannabis. Using Leah’s cannabis knowledge, Kearney assists multi state operators to increase profitability and transform their operations for superior execution. She also maintains her own consulting company advising both plant touching companies, ancillary services companies and international funds on strategy and infrastructure building.
Leah entered the cannabis industry in 2015 after being told by her doctor to explore it use medically to reduce the inflammation and pain from a chronic illness called pancreatitis; an illness that resulted in the inability to work and more than 35 hospitalizations. Cannabis has allowed Leah both a career and freedom from regular hospitalization. In the years since cannabis, she has only been hospitalized once with chronic pancreatitis. Her doctors remain enthusiastic about her body’s response to the plant.
Leah is a supporter of many businesses in the industry. In addition to her work scaling and advising companies, she sits on the advisory boards of Safe Arbor (a pre-market contactless delivery system) and ProCanna (a software platform providing compliant, operational efficiencies to the industry). She also volunteers for Athletes for Care and Rylie’s Smile. When Leah isn’t working, which according to her family isn’t often, she loves to travel, hike, sing, sketch, read, and keeps promising herself that she will start doing yoga again.
