When someone told Scott it was impossible to make a drinkable cannabis beverage, he took it as a challenge.

Six months later, SōRSE’s Chief Science Officer had cracked it—creating the first stable, great-tasting cannabis emulsion in 2017. ✨

Before cannabis: 20 years making materials that hold airplanes together (yes, really 🛩️)

Now: pioneering water-soluble cannabinoids and occasionally plating spaghetti like a chemist 🍝

His advice? “Never substitute knowledge for familiarity. You can only operate one level above what you actually know.”

Meet Laurie Parfitt, CMO at SōRSE 💚

She joined cannabis because it’s part of a movement—and because it’s an industry that celebrated her, not just tolerated her.

5 months in at SōRSE, she’s building brands the right way. But here’s what she wants you to know: “CMOs aren’t going to turn the ship in 3 months. It takes 18 months to build a brand or right the ship.”

What’s she proudest of? Her family—a marriage and 3 kids who make this career possible.
Her advice: “Create your own luck; don’t count on others to hand it to you. Cannabis is hard for everyone. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done, but it’s the most rewarding. Stick with it!” ✨

Meet Leslie Keddie, Controller at SōRSE ✨

She helped take the first cannabis company public on a major U.S. stock exchange (TLRY) and has spent nearly five years at SōRSE building something new.

The reality? Cannabis finance is way more complex than traditional industries—navigating compliance, risk, and operations without the same infrastructure requires serious creativity and resilience.

Her advice: “Get comfortable with change. The industry is evolving fast, and those who adapt will lead it.” 💚

25 years in flavor chemistry. Two daughters who keep her sharp. One clear rule: honest feedback wins.

Susie Bautista, SōRSE Food Scientist, says her best and adaptogen products came from customers who didn’t hold back—positive or negative.

“Don’t hold back. Honest feedback is your friend.”

7 years in cannabis. 1 month at SōRSE. 1 clear strategy.

Steph Woods joined as VP of Sales because she believes cannabis beverages are the normalization pathway—and SōRSE brings real CPG rigor to make it happen.

Her advice to those starting out in the industry:
“Cannabis is new, but great businesses aren’t. Look to retail, CPG, and F&B for the playbooks.”

Biochem degree. Emulsion scientist. Problem solver.

Jamie Taylor chose over pharma because she saw a space that needed serious, product-minded scientists.

Her challenge: creating beverages that are safe, consistently dosed, and taste amazing—all at once.

Her advice to newcomers:
“Be prepared for constant regulatory changes. Trends shift. Regulations shift. You’ll redevelop products and strategy constantly. Don’t be afraid of that.”

Bonus skill she didn’t learn in school? Taking lab equipment apart and rebuilding it to understand how everything actually works.

From distillate edibles to emulsion beverages. From familiar to unknown.
Hilary Brown joined SōRSE as Director of R&D because she wanted to challenge herself with water-soluble cannabis platforms, something beyond the edibles she’d previously developed from distillate.

The reality of R&D work:
“The fail rate is high. But each failed product leads you closer to success.”

Her biggest reward? Watching products she developed succeed in the market.

Her advice:
“Stay aware of trends in the non-cannabis market. Cannabis is a consumer good—flavor and ingredient trends follow mainstream .”

“We’ve been meaning to evaluate backup suppliers, but...”

Sound familiar?

Most beverage brands assume switching emulsion providers means reformulation chaos, production delays, and sensory changes their customers will notice.

Here’s what actually happens when you evaluate SōRSE:
✓ 45-day qualification (not 6+ months)
✓ Runs parallel to your current production
✓ Your recipe stays intact
✓ We match your exact sensory profile
✓ Accelerated stability testing
✓ Side-by-side performance data

The best time to qualify a Plan B supplier? Before you desperately need one. Link in bio for the full breakdown.
