JACK MARAGE | HEAD OF SURVEILLANCE

What’s your favorite kind of food?

Mediterranean cuisine.

What was your first job?

I started working under the table for my grandfather’s construction company as a laborer during the weekends and summers in grade school. My first official job was as a Cavalry Scout in the United States Army right after high school.

What’s your favorite book? Movie?

One Flew over the Cuckoo’s Nest by Ken Kesey was the first book to spark my interest in reading, so that book will always hold a special place with me. My favorite movie is The Holy Mountain by Alejandro Jodorowsky.

What’s on your bucket list?

I don’t really have a bucket list because if there is anything that I want to do, I normally just go and do it. The only thing I can somewhat think of is going back to college to finish my Fine Art Sculpting degree and eventually owning my own Brewery/Pub.

Red or black licorice?

Red

A typical weekend for me is…

Hanging out with friends and family. Working on my Jeep or going out off-roading. Going to the ocean, camping, hiking, barbequing, target practice, and hunting. 🌊 🍖 🎯

If you could meet anyone, dead or alive, who would it be and why?

Hunter S. Thompson: to talk to him about his writing style and the stories he lived. Also to go on one last great American adventure with him.

How do you relax after a hard day’s work?

I tend to catch up on podcasts, go hiking, read books or listen to audiobooks, and occasionally play video games.

What is one thing people don’t know about you?

One thing people don’t know about me is I am color blind.

What are you looking forward to in the coming months?

Going on vacation to Las Vegas for the UFC and international fight week.

What’s your preferred type of cannabis product?

Flower and hash.

What’s your favorite strain?

White Widow and AFT were my favorite strains growing up, now I really enjoy Dog Cookies. 🐶 🍪

Where do you see the cannabis industry in the next 5 years? 10 years?

National legislation and a major industrial boom.

Describe your typical day at fumé.

What’s your favorite thing about working at fumé?
