We are grateful to Jessica for her significant contributions and financial stewardship during her tenure with Charlotte’s Web.”

Saxton will provide continuity and assist in transitioning Lind into her new role as CFO. 

Lind holds a bachelor’s degree from Southern New Hampshire University and a master’s in finance and accounting from Regis University.
