Maria Monsoon

Medical Consultant
Maria was born in Kitsap county, but moved all over the country as a Marine Corps brat. She loves exploring the medical side of cannabis, while still enjoying the fun side of the effects. Durban Poison freshly rolled into a joint is her idea of a great way to start the morning; however, she has started to really enjoy more relaxing strains like Sour Zkittles. When she is not discovering new cannabis related information you can find her gardening, gaming, or watching hockey. Go Knights!
