The Industry's First Fractional Risk Officer
Most cannabis companies have fractional CFOs. But who holds the risk and quality leadership role?
That's what Red Wolf Risk was built to solve.
Founded by Alex Hearding after 15 years building and operating licensed cannabis facilities, Red Wolf exists because the industry needed someone who could speak three languages fluently: operations, insurance, and regulation.
OPS is the result of that intersection , a program that makes compliance enforceable, makes insurance negotiable, and makes risk measurable.
Core Values:
- Resourcefulness — Practical solutions to complex problems
- Integrity — Do what's right, not what's easy
- Stewardship — Long-term safety and sustainable value
- Kindness — Partnership built on respect
