“Honoring the plant through forward-thinking and socially responsible post-harvest practices”
Prior to jumping into the cannabis industry, Arabella spent 15 years as an infrastructure Project Manager with J.P. Morgan Chase. Specializing in Information systems projects, this gave her the necessary skills and experience to thrive in the evolving and constantly changing California regulated cannabis industry. After owning and operating other non-cannabis retail shops, Ms. McCreary opened High Maintenance Trim Co to specialize in hand trim services. After adapting services to the many changing needs of her clients, she has become a “one stop shop” offering cultivation assistance, business development, and industry training. As President and CEO of High Maintenance Trim Co, Arabella has a strong commitment to social equity and helping the underserved communities. A mother of 5, she is originally from Oakland, California and knows first-hand how the war on drugs impacted the community over the years. Arabella’s consulting supports operators with expansion plans, initial setup, training of staff and efficient setup of post harvest processing rooms. She most recently consulted a client in Canada and although the regulations may not be identical, she is able to share best practices and operating procedures to help make operators successful. Her contribution as a Vice Chair on the National Cannabis Industry Association (NCIA) HRC Committee and Women In Cannabis Expo Advisory board help her keep the pulse on industry and community.
