Prior to graduating with Harvard’s class of 2016, Espinosa helped co-found the Cannabis Cultural Association (CCA), an organization which strives to involve underrepresented communities in the legal cannabis/hemp industry in New York. Currently, Sonia is focused on the Massachusetts Recreational Consumer Council, MRCC, who’s efforts seek to bridge the gap between communities and local legislators. A result of MRCC is #WeedTalk, an educational visual series that chronicles the science, culture, technology, and economics of the legalization of marijuana. Aside from MRCC and #WeedTalk, Sonia runs EatMe.Land, a cannabis art collective. Sonia’s past work experiences include Vice Magazine’s editorial department and NH dispensary Temescal’s, edible department. Sonia has previously also worked with Women Grow to help with administrative assistance and software payment transactions.
