Marianne Cursetjee, CEO and Co-Founder at Alibi Cannabis
Marianne didn’t plan on building a cannabis brand — she came from the worlds of finance, business, and e-commerce. But after a breast cancer diagnosis in 2015, she experienced the plant’s healing potential firsthand and decided to make cannabis her life’s work. Together with her co-founders, she built Alibi into a premium Oregon brand known for high-quality indoor flower and bold, elegant branding. Eight years later, she’s leading the company into new markets like New York, while staying grounded in the values of adventure, authenticity, and purpose.
