In this episode, Luke goes inside with Deborah Carter, Co-Founder, Trove CBD.
Deborah Carter began her professional career as an advertising copywriter, first for Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, and later for the then largest ad agency in Philadelphia. A move to Washington, DC found Deborah rooting for the Hoyas and earning her law degree from Georgetown University while helping to build a consulting firm where she managed the Superfund sampling and analysis program for the US Environmental Protection Agency.
Leaving the Clean Water Act for the clean water of Colorado, Deborah moved west to pursue the practice of law. An accomplished artist and designer, and an avid animal lover, Deborah competes in the equestrian sport of dressage and fosters rescue dogs, to date helping over 50 dogs and puppies find their forever homes. Her years of service on the board of a major charitable foundation contributed to significant awareness and advances in animal health research. In fact, it was the search for answers in resolving a devastating neuromuscular condition in her young horse that benched retirement and inspired Deborah and her son, Sam, to bring the health and wellness benefits of CBD for people and for animals to the marketplace with Trove.
"Wear the hat of a regulator. In the current CBD space where federal and state legalities are unclear, and FDA regulation looms large, the companies that will succeed will set their own high standards for product quality, analytical testing, labeling, marketing, and customer service."
- Deborah Carter
