“During my time at MedMen I had the great pleasure of working with Alex Begg. When I started Alex was running a small technology team and single handedly programed and architected the first and only seed to sale platform for the Cannabis Industry MedMen 1.0. He also supported the technology for all the Grow, Manufacturing, and Retail Stores. Everyone new Alex, his humor and approachable demeanor put him in high-demand and when things needed to get done quickly Alex was your man. I have been in technology for a while and I have never worked with someone who could assimilate technology as quickly as Alex. His ability to learn a coding language and apply it in practice was uncanny. Alex also handled pressure better than anyone I know. He could turn around things quickly even when he faced unreasonable deadlines. He also was a positive force of the team; he would never ask anyone to do something he either hadn’t done or would be willing to do himself. As employee number one Alex knew all aspects of the business beyond technology. You would be hard pressed to find someone as knowledgeable and dedicated as Alex. He is an experienced and gifted technologies and amazing human being. I would recommend Alex in any endeavor he pursues and any company would be lucky to have him.”
