Read about our founder on Budsfeed

"Creativity and cannabis have always gone together, and with marijuana being mainstream in California for the past decade, it’s been a draw for creative professionals across the entertainment, marketing, and advertising worlds. On the bleeding edge of that movement was Masha Kupets Navarre, a veteran of the entertainment marketing world and the founder of Plastic Palmtree.

While many of us dream about venturing out to do something creative in cannabis, Masha put the plant at the forefront of her business, forging early relationships and creating award winning work for or some of the biggest companies in the cannabis industry, ranging from branding to immersive IRL experiences. It’s no surprise Plastic Palmtree has gone bi-coastal and was recognized at this year’s Clio Cannabis Awards."

The cannabis business had some big wins during this year's election. Now, that's stimulating predictions of major greenback growth along with ever-more sophisticated marketing strategies on the part of cannabis companies.

In November, citizens of four states—California, Massachusetts, Maine and Nevada—voted to approve recreational cannabis usage for adults 21 or over. They join four other states where the drug can be used recreationally: Alaska, Colorado, Oregon and Washington, along with the District of Columbia. Meanwhile, voters in Florida, Arkansas, North Dakota and Montana also approved the legalized use of medical marijuana. All told, 28 states have opened up to medical usage.
