Julia Jerome, Director of Production

Julia was hired as the first employee of The Healing Rose team in April 2018 and is now the Director of Production, spending her days directing the entire production lab as they handcraft products. She spent the majority of her life in the Hudson Valley, New York. While attending college, Julia developed severe digestive issues. For a couple of years she went undiagnosed, trying many medications that provided nothing but side effects. During this difficult time she turned to cannabis to treat her symptoms, where she felt the impact of the stigma due to living in New York. Around the time she was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis, an Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), she moved in with a friend in Connecticut and began researching how people were using cannabis and hemp to treat IBD. Shortly after she became a CT medical patient. Julia was obsessed with learning everything she could about this plant, taking many classes and attending events. While she gained a better understanding on what to look for in strains, she became frustrated with the CT pharmaceutical model, often feeling like she knew more than the people helping her at the dispensary. She decided that she needed to be a part of the New England Cannabis Industry to ensure that people had access to the education needed to determine the best way to use cannabis and hemp in their lives. She is grateful to be a part of such an accepting community and loves providing education and products that help make a difference in people’s lives. In her free time, Julia is just as passionate about the outdoors as she is about cannabis and hemp, and is happiest exploring trails.

Lead Account Manager Caitlin Moakley of Soil & Spirit

Caitlin is the heart and mind behind Soil and Spirit, an independent consultancy focusing on collaborating and creating with small businesses in the natural products industry and cannabis and psychedelic communities. When Caitlin isn’t thinking outside of the box with her client, she’s orchestrating quite the cacophony in the kitchen with her weapon of choice: the S-Blade or browsing through her many books in her home resource library. Caitlin is thrilled to be aligned with The Healing Rose – this was the first CBD topical care brand that she sought out, vetted and got placement for on retail shelves during her time as a body care buyer in the natural products industry.

Marketing Specialist Tanna Smith

Tanna was born and raised in the Land of Enchantment, making her way across the country to New England for graduate school at Johnson & Wales University. She found her way into the cannabis industry by networking with a student-lead organization through Brown University called SMART (Student Marijuana Alliance for Research and Transparency). She knew that this industry was her calling by seeing how cannabis transforms the daily lives of people coping with chronic pain, veterans with PTSD, children with epilepsy, and people with anxiety and depression! She adores her cat Holly, the perfect cup of coffee, a creative project, rock climbing, and regularly going to acupuncture.

Production Assistant Shannon Fahey

From the coast of Massachusetts, Shannon has always been a cannabis enthusiast with a passion for healing. At the beginning of college she started to have stomach issues, and throughout the years she had exhausted efforts, doctors and many medications. With a laundry list of side effects from the medications, she needed a more natural way to heal. She turned to the mother plant, cannabis, and started ingesting CBD. She is extremely happy to learn more in depth about CBD, and be part of a company helping others be in charge of their own healing too. In her free time, you can catch her enjoying live music, the outdoors and writing.
