BUILDING THE FUTURE is what Margit Whitlock of @architecturalconceptsinc is doing for cannabis architecture and design. Margit knows the importance of women breaking stigma, herself being one of only 10% of women in architecture school. She has brought the divine feminine into a male dominated space and her environments reflect the thoughtfulness and thoroughness of a woman’s touch.
As a mother Margit’s cannabis journey is one of fierce protectiveness. Her daughter Nina suffered many years unable to communicate her needs and Margit has traveled the globe to provide her daughter with relief from her seizures. Come join us and get to know this amazing woman, boss babe and mother.
