This thrilled Booklyn native and weed entrepreneur Alex Todd.
Before he launched Saucey Farms and Extracts, touted as a "luxury cannabis brand," Todd was a celebrity jeweler.
Among his big-name clients are Jay-Z (Shawn Carter), Rihanna and Kevin Hart.
He's now partnering with hip-hop artist Jim Jones on new cannabis products.
Todd spoke with Benzinga about a variety of topics, including:
What marijuana legalization would mean on both macro and micro levels
The effect that the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the cannabis industry
How the recent Election Day bodes well for weed reform
How his NY upbringing affected the way he does business
