MARY BAILEY

Mary Bailey has been a member of the cannabis industry for over twenty

years and is a firm believer that everybody fortunate enough to benefit from the legalization of cannabis should feel a moral obligation to assist those who are still suffering due to the devastating effects of prohibition.

As Managing Director & co-founder of the criminal justice reform non-profit, Last Prisoner Project, Mary leads development efforts and cultivates community partnerships that enable Last Prisoner Project to fight for the release of cannabis prisoners and support them as they rebuild their lives.

Her dedication to this mission has bolstered LPP’s reentry program which has distributed over $2M to constituents through direct grants, commissary funds, and other financial support. Before working with Last Prisoner project, Mary was the executive producer of Maui Cannabis Conference and CEO of Alpha Agency, a Hawaii-based production company specializing in creating events that inspire positive social change through music, education, and community engagement.

Mary recently received the High Times list of the Top 100 Most Influential

People in the Cannabis Industry, the Advocate of the Year Award from

Benzinga Cannabis, Top 100 Most Influential People for Activism by

Cannabis Global Times, and 40 under 40 from Cannabis Now Magazine.

She feels strongly that nobody should be in prison for cannabis and is

dedicated to helping to inspire a more socially conscious cannabis industry.
