Gerald Major is a medical cannabis patient, a chronic illness advocate and arthritis warrior.

Gerald’s Arthritis took him out of work 12 years ago where he was Senior Vice President of Operations for Citibank Hedge Fund Services North America. Gerald joined CFAMM in 2016 as he noticed the barriers to medical cannabis access for patients, with cost being a major factor.
