Background

About Ray Mirzabegian

As a lifelong entrepreneur, I’ve dedicated my career to building companies, brands, and movements that challenge convention, push industries forward, and make a meaningful impact on people’s lives. I am the Founder and CEO of multiple successful ventures in California’s cannabis and hemp space—businesses rooted in integrity, innovation, and a genuine commitment to helping others.My work has been featured in National Geographic, TIME Magazine, Virginia Quarterly Review, and many other mainstream outlets, spotlighting my role in creating a positive, science-forward movement within the pediatric cannabis industry. Over the years, I’ve been privileged to help families, patients, and policymakers better understand the potential of cannabis as a therapeutic tool, especially for children with complex medical needs. This mission has shaped much of my professional life and continues to guide the way I build, partner, and lead.I am also the author of the Amazon best-selling book In Search of a Miracle, a deeply personal project that documents the journey of my family’s fight for hope and healing. The book has become a resource and inspiration for readers around the world seeking clarity, compassion, and empowerment during difficult times.Across all of my ventures—whether launching new brands, scaling operations, shaping product strategy, or advocating for responsible industry standards—I focus on building companies that stand for something bigger than profits. I believe in education, transparency, community, and creating products that improve lives. California’s cannabis and hemp industry is evolving rapidly, and I’m committed to ensuring that evolution leads to higher quality, stronger ethics, and greater accessibility for all.My entrepreneurial path has allowed me to collaborate with incredible leaders, innovators, and changemakers, and I remain driven by the same core values that started this journey: purpose, passion, and the determination to make a difference.If you’re interested in collaboration, thought leadership opportunities, or connecting around cannabis innovation, brand development, or patient advocacy, I’m always open to meaningful conversations.
