Lifted Industry is a brand I founded in 2014 with the surging popularity of portable vaporizers and the legalization of recreational cannabis in certain states.

High Society

I launched the “Rize” as a unique solution on Indiegogo with two other marketing partners and managed factory sourcing, crowdfunding design, and R&D efforts with overseas manufacturers.

Challenge

Design a bold line of quality personal accessories to meet the growing consumer demands of new smoking enthusiasts.

Opportunity

At this time, there was only one major player in the cannabis consumer electronics industry, PAX. Lifted Industry and Rize were set against this landscape as the “Green Boom” attracted investors from Silicon Valley.

The Rize Modular Vaporizer solves incompatibility issues between batteries and heating elements, which result in low-quality disposable batteries and a lack of customer confidence.

The Rize was designed for liquids and solids used in one compact device. Instead of requiring multiple devices, it uses swappable modules for oils, e-liquids, and leaves.
