My work focused on enhancing the technology stack of their ERP system, including accounting, finance, sales reporting, and various compliance processes.
This involved collaborating across all three farms, as well as with the finance & accounting teams, the national sales team, and the engineering team.
My time there culminated in managing our largest farm in Vernon, California (40+ staff) on an interim basis before ultimately assisting in winding down national farming operations after the owners filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.
The desire to bring more cohesion to the myceliated industry inspired me to create this application: Myceliated Net
