Cadigan, Erin
Erin Cadigan is a multi-industry designer as well as a legacy cannabis operator.
Over the past twenty-five years, Erin has gone from selling art out of the back of her van to designing for some of the world’s largest fashion corporations to building a boutique hotel. Along the journey, she's engaged in projects in the fields of illustration & fine art, fashion, textile & product design, academia & entrepreneurship, and interior & architectural CAD design.
From 1998-2005, Erin was part of an international cannabis distribution trade until a DEA civil forfeiture ended that aspect of her career path.

Additionally, with her life and business partner, Martin Mills, she heads The Golden Unicorn, a firm helping brands build connections and launch products within the cannabis space.
