FIrst of many in field by Michael - June 2020 Scholarship Essay

My anticipated career path is unconventional for generations before me, but it appears to be gaining traction within the last few years. I plan on becoming a part of the cannabis industry, but I am not quite sure where I want to contribute in the business. I have seen how cannabis has benefits for others and it slowly becoming acceptable throughout society, and appears to have legality changes in our future. Hopefully on the federal level, at least for medical uses, cannabis becomes legalized and is taken off the schedule 1 drug lust because it has way too many benefits
I would like to continue help others with anxiety, depression, aches, insomnia, and so many other ailments that cannabis has been proven to help with. I am currently at Stockton University minoring in one of the very cannabis programs in the nation and hope to use it as soon as I get out of school. I want to be able to open my own business eventually but debts incurred from getting an education will delay my start of that. Corona virus has done no favors in paying off my school, which is why I find myself here. I want to make the cannabis industry as big as the alcohol industry, for monetary reasons and medical reasons.
