Rick started his career working as a Financial Advisor and Private Equity Specialist for Merrill Lynch Wealth Management Group where he handled high level clients. After cannabis was legalized in Colorado, January of 2014, Rick saw an opportunity in an emerging market. Rick launched CCMG as a first of its kind vertical conglomerate of cannabis companies that are licensed legally through the funding with the Marijuana Enforcement Division and the SEC. To Rick, being a venture capitalist means being the ignition point to connect ideas, people and resources. Creating something where there was nothing is the best way he knows how to contribute to our society.
