With over two decades of experience in both nursing and massage therapy, I bring a clinical yet holistic perspective to the intersection of cannabis, wellness, and skincare. I've been immersed in the cannabis industry since 2010 and began teaching in 2017, committed to educating others on safe, effective, and evidence-informed practices. As a nurse of 24 years and a licensed massage therapist for 19 years, my teaching is grounded in both science and compassion.

In 2014, I founded Primal Therapeutics, one of the first mobile cannabis massage businesses in the country, dedicated to bringing plant medicine directly to clients in a personalized and therapeutic setting. Building on that mission, I launched Primal Healing in 2019, a line of organic hemp-based skincare products that reflect my commitment to quality, integrity, and the healing power of nature. Since creating both businesses, I have been featured in many publications.

I have been providing education at the largest spa conferences in the nation since 2017. My courses focus on cannabis massage, integrative wellness, and topical skincare applications, offering students real-world insights from the front lines of both healthcare and plant medicine. I believe in empowering practitioners to elevate their skills and their self-care, and I bring a deep respect for the healing potential of the human touch and the cannabis plant.

My teaching philosophy is simple: never stop learning. I’m honored to share what I’ve learned—and continue to learn—with others dedicated to growth, healing, and professional excellence.

What happens when you mix relentless drive, academic prowess, and an innate knack for reading people? You get Tara Furiani. She isn't just in the people business—she is the people business. With over two decades of transformative leadership under her belt, Tara shatters the conventional, often stodgy, paradigms of HR and corporate culture, bringing humanity back into the workplace.

Sporting dual Master's degrees in Psychology and Organizational Leadership, Tara's academic mettle is as rock-solid as her real-world chops. Her slew of advanced certifications isn't just for show; it’s her toolkit for crafting highly responsive, agile organizations. She’s been the mastermind behind multiple industry-defining shifts during her 13 years as a Chief People Officer for companies valued over $6 billion and employing more than 10,000 people worldwide.

But let's cut through the corporate jargon: Tara is a people champion. She fights for DEI not just as a buzzword but as a way of life, all the way from boardrooms on Earth to the realms of space, serving on NASA's DEI board. For Tara, equity isn't just a corporate initiative; it's a universal mandate.

Still think she’s all business? Think again. A mother of five and a doting partner, Tara knows the real-world application of work-life balance like no other. She's the driving force of her family and the beating heart of her home, roles she embraces with the same vigor as her corporate undertakings.

If you need further proof, lend an ear to her hit podcast, "Not the HR Lady," where she tackles the industry's stale narratives and offers fresh, often revolutionary, perspectives. And don't be fooled by the exec persona; she can drop a Dr. Dre lyric faster than you can say "organizational change."

When you partner with Tara Furiani, you’re not just getting a consultant or a thought leader. You’re aligning with a living, breathing catalyst for meaningful change—in your organization and in your life. Are you ready?

I am a 21-year-old Geology student at Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria, with a deep-rooted passion for exploring the Earth, from its rocks to its vast natural systems and an even deeper commitment to empowering young people to figure life out early, regardless of their course of study or background.

As someone navigating both the world of geosciences and the realities of life as a young Nigerian, I understand the confusion, pressure, and uncertainty many students and recent graduates face. Whether it’s choosing the right career path, handling job rejections, or feeling unprepared for the future, I’ve been there, and I’m here to help others move forward with clarity and confidence.

My passion lies at the intersection of geoscience education, youth empowerment, and sustainable development. I believe that geosciences are not just about studying the Earth, but about understanding the role we play in preserving it, and equipping the next generation with the mindset and skills to lead in this mission.

Through speaking, writing, and mentoring, I help students and graduates unlock their potential, discover purpose-driven careers, and position themselves for global opportunities, especially in a world transitioning toward cleaner, more sustainable energy systems.

I’m driven by a vision: to raise a generation of young Africans who are scientifically informed, socially aware, and strategically prepared for the challenges and opportunities of the future both in geoscience and beyond.

Over the course of his career, Craig Bonn has dedicated more than thirty years to developing strategies that help investors participate in opportunities outside of traditional markets. He focuses on alternative investments, private equity, and pre-IPO companies. Today, he is the Managing Partner of Harley Capital LLC, an independent broker-dealer, and the Managing Member of Edge Partners LLC, which organizes Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) for accredited investors seeking access to late-stage private companies. His professional record includes exposure to various industries—technology, healthcare, energy, and consumer markets—and early involvement in companies such as Facebook, Databricks, and Anthropic.

Craig’s path began in New York, where he was born and raised, before pursuing his undergraduate education at the University of Hartford. Soon after completing his degree, he joined Lehman Brothers. Working at the firm placed him amid global financial activity, where he learned to evaluate risk, manage portfolios, and advise clients across diverse situations. While the environment was demanding and competitive, it also revealed to him the limitations of conventional financial instruments. He observed that not every client’s long-term goals could be met through traditional markets alone, which inspired him to look more closely at alternatives.

Guided by this insight, Craig established Harley Capital LLC. He aimed to create an independent, transparent, and long-term client service firm. Harley Capital grew into a boutique investment company, serving high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and trusts. Clients of Harley Capital benefit from carefully selected opportunities in areas such as private equity and pre-IPO investments, which are often beyond the reach of conventional investors. The firm emphasizes diversification, clear communication, and fiduciary responsibility as central to its mission.

Craig further extended his professional focus through Edge Partners LLC. At Edge Partners, he applies the SPV model to give accredited investors structured participation in pre-IPO and late-stage venture opportunities. Organized under a Delaware Series LLC, the firm is efficient and flexible while maintaining thorough due diligence. Edge Partners has prioritized investments in fields such as artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, robotics, and software, which are industries positioned for long-term growth. He oversees acquiring securities in private companies and holding them until liquidity events such as acquisitions or public offerings occur.

His approach to investing emphasizes three pillars: disciplined risk management, appropriate timing, and a long-term vision. Craig believes that successful outcomes require choosing companies with potential and structuring the investments to safeguard participants. His preference for SPVs reflects this philosophy, providing both access to growth and a framework that manages risk.

Beyond pre-IPO markets, Craig has been active in natural gas mineral funds, venture partnerships, hospitality REITs, and specialized financing. His involvement includes WhiteHawk Energy and investments in Outstanding Foods, Braemar Hotels and Resorts, Prospect Capital, and Urica Therapeutics. Each reflects his practice of assessing industries, market conditions, and company fundamentals before committing capital.

Craig has remained committed to philanthropy and community involvement outside his professional roles. He supports organizations such as Pink Aid and Fred’s Team, which fund cancer research and health initiatives. His contributions include both financial support and participation in awareness-building events.

Craig has lived with his wife in Westport, Connecticut, for over 25 years. He is a runner who has completed five marathons, including the New York Marathon. He also enjoys traveling and gaining perspective by engaging with different cultures and economies.

Balancing his career achievements with philanthropy and personal pursuits, Craig Bonn continues to follow a path that reflects dedication, long-term vision, and community engagement.
