Who is @Decentralizd, the lead blogger and pioneer of the @KushSmokers project?

I have been into Bitcoin as many of you know for quite some time now, I got my first Bitcoin around $90 and have been hooked since. Well when I found Steem last year the game was forever changed yet again, I have been posting, voting and overall being an ambassador for Steem since day 1, and I see no end in sight. I plan on trying to make #KushSmokers into something never before seen in either the Cannabis industry, or on Steem! So keep a close eye on us folks!

Whats my background in Cannabis, what should you expect from my #KushSmokers posts?

I also happen to be an avid cannabis lover for 12 years as well and have worked in the cannabis industry for the past 5 years, ever since I quit my main job designing websites for companies and took a leap of faith to start over in a brand new industry as a budtender in the medical field of Washington State, at a little shop called "Delightful Caregivers".

I spent 12-14 hours a day running a medical shop and building my experience with cannabis, even though I had been smoking for a little over 6 years prior to that, I still felt I was uneducated and needed some polishing so I decided working from the ground up was the best way to learn it. I went from making $35 an hour to $12 then quickly worked my way back up to roughly $22 an hour due to the hike in sales I had created for our shop, but that was short lived as Washington State voted for I502 and medical was over. We were all told to transition into the recreational field, where medical would one day make a return as a sideshow of recreational shops... le sigh. I eventually moved on to working in the recreational industry for some of the first stores to open such as Mary's on Aurora, Grass & Glass! then later moved onto Rainier Cannabis & Kush21. I also work with Kush Klub in Shoreline and consult for many more friends and associates on a regular basis under my new business entity, "Ember Creative".

Here's me at one my last shops showing one our favorite guys @CustomGrow420 (Yes I am going to invite him to Steemit obviously, soon) around Kush21, a Store in SeaTac, Washington!

Fast forward to today, I run a full-time business within the indsutry I love and am blogging about my life on Steemit... wow. Anyways, as far as my content goes; I plan to cover my favorite products, stores, strains and overall just give you a peak into my life as a cannabis oriented marketer, and the recreational cannabis industry from the view of someone who lives it every day.

Where do I see cannabis heading in the future?

I would like to hope we don't ever see the day when companies like Marlboro are in charge of anything related to cannabis, but being how history repeats itself, its doubtful. So while I can I like to enjoy the small business mentality that is alive and thriving in the cannabis field. It's reminds me of the stories people used to tell me as a kid about America being the land of opportunity, and that, combined with the quality buds is plenty to keep me in this field for life. No where else do you get this much gratitude from others or such a large sense of accomplishment either.. I hope one day cannabis and all other drugs are legalized and we stop fighting this stupid war on drugs and freedoms and let people just be people.

Whats my favorite strain? Method of smoking? Product?

My favorite way to smoke as of lately is my good old dab rig, but I switch around quite a bit. I've been known to smoke blunts, joints, bongs, pipes, pineapples or anything else I can get my hands on! I much prefer the fresh flowers to vaping or edibles any day and if I had to pick a single strain it would have to be DJ Shorts Blueberry...drool.

I am a big fan of that yummy light green cannabis with tons of crystals and is fresh, crisp and has been properly kept, I don't mind paying $55 or even $65 for an eighth for example, but it better be the good good! I tend to avoid edibles just because I'm lazy, and don't need any help being couch locked haha!

I hope you guys enjoy the journey and follow us as we build a cutting edge cannabis brand and power it with Steem, all while bringing new awesome writers into the Steemit community & spotlight from the cannabis industry!
