Meet The Team: Michelle Rutter Friberg – Deputy Director of Government Relations

by Michelle Rutter Friberg, NCIA’s Deputy Director of Government Relations
Let me just say: if you had asked me in high school where I saw my career going, I would not have guessed the cannabis industry!
When I was told one day that I could choose any topic to do a research project in one of my PoliSci classes, I somehow came across cannabis.
After a little more than a year, one of my coworkers mentioned in passing that a gentleman from the cannabis industry was coming in the next day to talk about our services.
Lucky for me, they said yes, and that’s where the story of my career in cannabis began.
