Team

Built by operators, not account managers.

Rishi has no bench of juniors and no account layer. When you engage us, the founders are in the room — and both are still operating inside the industry right now, on both coasts.

The founders

Still in the arena.

What we learn in-market this week goes to work on your brand the next. Both founders are operating inside the industry right now — Mike on product and systems, Matt on retail and markets.

Mike Waxman

Co-founder · Product & Systems

Built Rishi’s original operating stack — hiring, scheduling, kit logistics, proof-of-work — and scaled the field operation from zero to 100+ people across three states. Today he works as a professional product manager, and brings that discipline to every client program: instrument everything, ship fast, let the data decide.

Matt Gill

Co-founder · Markets & Retail

Runs market operations for Coast Cannabis in Maryland — building and deploying a large-scale sales, marketing, and ops team for one of the East Coast’s leading brands. The playbooks he refines in-market every week are the playbooks Rishi clients get.

Operating credentials

The record behind the team.

Built and ran one of California’s largest brand-activation operations — hiring, training, and deploying more than a hundred field professionals across three states, sustaining multi-million-dollar brand portfolios for years. That’s the operation behind everycase study.
