What I'm looking for
I am an experienced cannabis industry professional with a strong foundation in medical cannabis, Ayurvedic principles, and business management. My journey began in 2016 in Dhoolpet, Hyderabad, India, where I explored the Ayurvedic applications of cannabis. Over the years, I have deepened my expertise through advanced studies, including a Foundation in Medical Cannabis under the mentorship of Dr. Ruth Fisher from Canada, and specialized training in Cannabis Management, Quality, and Edibles at the Academy of Applied Pharmaceutical Sciences (AAPS).
As the founder of Sun God, established in January 2022, I am dedicated to building a trusted cannabis industry in Mauritius, combining global consulting experience and a passion for education to promote responsible use and sustainable practices. My skill set includes developing therapeutic cannabis-based products such as oils, topicals, tinctures, butter, and sugar. I have treated various conditions and launched Medical.cann, an Instagram platform aimed at educating the Mauritian public about medical cannabis.
