Mountain High Acquisitions Appoints Teri Vries as New CEO

Professional Services Close - Up

Mountain High Acquisitions Corp. recently reported that it appointed Teri D. Vries to the positions of CEO and President, and to the Board of Directors of the Company.

The company said that Vries is a healthcare industry manager and business consultant with over 20 years of experience focused on strategy development, process improvement, change management, financial analysis and reporting, benchmarking, and business development with both large and mid-size organizations.

"We are very excited to have someone as qualified and highly regarded as Teri Vries join the Mountain High team as the Company's new Chief Executive Officer and President," stated Alan Smith, Director and former President of Mountain High. "Her significant business management and accounting qualifications, combined with her knowledge of nutraceutical distribution and marketing strategies, make her an ideal corporate leader as we move forward with our plans to develop the synergies between our two active subsidiaries, GreenLife BotaniX and Freedom Seed and Feed, in the CBD/hemp oil and industrial hemp sector."

According to a release, prior to joining Mountain High, Vries was a Product Consultant to Highmark Inc., one of the leading health insurers in Pennsylvania, where she was project manager for initiatives valued at over $1 Billion over a seven year period. From 2003-05, Vries was a Senior Healthcare Consultant with McKesson Corp., a Fortune Global 500 provider of health information technology, medical supplies, care management tools, and operator of the Health Mart network of over 2,500 independently owned pharmacies.

Vries concluded, "I look forward to utilizing all of my accumulated knowledge, experience, and connections within the healthcare and nutraceutical sectors to help develop and execute a dynamic growth strategy that can leverage our key strengths and maximize the value of the Mountain High's unique CBD and phytocannabinoid profile as well as our industrial hemp assets."

Mountain High Acquisitions Corp. is a diversified holding company focused on the acquisition and development of businesses within the hemp and CBD nutraceutical sectors.
