Meet Your Trainer — Kristi Talagan, M.Ed., CAGS Woman-Owned | Certified WBE — SDO Supplier Diversity Office
Before Bud Education, there was a classroom. For 25 years, Kristi Talagan worked as a certified Master Educator and Administrator in a Massachusetts inner-city school district developing curriculum, navigating policy, and finding ways to make complex information accessible to people who needed it most.
That foundation is what makes her cannabis training different. Kristi doesn't just teach compliance she builds curriculum the way educators do: structured, practical, and designed to actually stick.
Her work has been recognized with grant funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation for equity-focused curriculum development. She is an adjunct professor in the workforce development Department in college in Boston, consults with manufacturing companies on compliance and safety training, and brings the perspective of a working cultivator to everything she teaches about cannabis. Yes, she is an active novice cultivator.
Kristi is a lifelong Massachusetts resident based in Saugus, MA — and a passionate advocate for making quality cannabis education accessible, affordable, and built for the real world.
