NJ.com hires Warren to cover cannabis

Gabby Warren

Gabby Warren has been hired to cover the cannabis beat for NJ.com, which includes The Star-Ledger, the Jersey Journal and the Trenton Times.

Warren writes, “Let me hold your hand and help you navigate consumer laws, how to consume your weed and the types of cannabis businesses you’ll see popping up around the state.

“We will explore products from all over the world, especially those available to you to buy in New Jersey.

“You’ve relied on NJ.com to give you lists of where to buy the best pizza or empanadas, now you have me to tell you where to find the best weed in the state.

“My background in the legacy market and legalization advocacy in Washington, D.C. paired with my knowledge of tourism, hospitality, music and cosmetology has led me straight to New Jersey.”
