Cannabusiness Growth Series

Brought to you by Ms. Jane Accounting, Hellmuth & Johnson, and Blunt Strategies, the Cannabusiness Growth Series will help you start or expand your cannabusiness with the insight and perspective of cannabis industry experts.

Join us at noon on Tuesday, November 9, for session two featuring Carol Moss, an attorney at Hellmuth & Johnson, who will discuss the recent Loveless Court of Appeals case and its ramifications with Minnesota’s hemp industry along with recent FTC crackdowns on medical statements and CBD, and cash management and SOPs for cannabis companies with Naomi Granger of Green Leaf CFO.

Carol Moss is a partner with Hellmuth & Johnson, a law firm located in Edina, Minnesota. Carol has a passion for advising and guiding her clients as they grow and navigate challenges, especially in the legal cannabusiness arena, allowing them to focus on creating and continuing successful businesses. She has represented cannabusiness clients at different points in the product stream – from growers to retailers. Her focus on assisting her business clients to succeed has led her to become a board member of the National Association of Women Business Owners-Minnesota. Working with a full-service law firm, Carol is able to support her clients with whatever situation may come their way.

Angela is the owner of Ms. Jane Accounting, a cannabis accounting firm with a focus on social equity. She has over 17 years of experience in accounting and tax. She began her first business when she was twenty-one while attending college full time. And she quickly realized that people get into being a business owner to do what they love, not to handle the back-end bookkeeping, accounting, and tax work. When she realized this same gap in the cannabis industry, she transitioned into the cannabis space.

Minnesota’s leading strategic consultancy for the cannabis industry offering services including PR, strategic communications, and lobbying.

A former “Big 4” accounting professional, Naomi has over 15 years of experience in both public accounting and industry accounting. Over 4 years ago, Naomi decided to try her hat at entrepreneurship and has never looked back. Naomi recognized a void in the cannabis industry and founded Green Leaf CFO in order to bring proper bookkeeping, accounting and tax practices to cannabis businesses.

Green Leaf CFO provides educational tools for accountants and financial professionals to enter into the cannabis industry for untapped professional potential. Our mission is to help accountants fall back in love with accounting again, by changing the current state of the accounting industry from being high-stress, highly competitive; to a collaborative, value producing assets to our client’s businesses.

Naomi has been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Cheddar TV, on the cover of the Las Vegas Sun, on the cover of MJ Biz’s Jan 2019 issue in their “Women to Watch” feature as well as many other publications.
