Krane has spent 20+ years working in the cannabis industry. Prior to his work at 4Front, Krane worked in Washington to reform our nation’s misguided drug and marijuana laws, first as Associate Director of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) and then as Executive Director of Students for Sensible Drug Policy, which he is proud to have helped build into the largest student organization in the United States.
