Budtender of the Month: Andriceia Craft

“I’m glad to be in the business so I can be more educated and honor them.”

Her love for fashion led her to modeling and photography, and she’s also a talented multi-instrumentalist who’s been playing piano since the age of nine. You’ll also catch her out and about blowing minds on her roller skates. Follow her on Instagram: @exotic.flowerzz.

You have a great name, where did it come from?
My name is a combination of both my parents’. My mother is Andrea and my father is Maurice, so they got Andriceia. They made sure to follow proper grammar by following the I before E except after C rule (giggles).

Do you feel like you got equal attributes from your parents?
Like my mother, I’m free-spirited. She’s singing all the time. She goes wherever her heart takes her. She’s just herself — my dad, too. They’re just perfect for each other. My dad is very soulful and wise. I’m very into music and grateful that my dad turned me on to a lot of good music. He’s very supportive of all my artistic endeavors.


I assume they’re supportive of your being in the Cannabis industry?
They love it. Both of my parents were Cannabis users. My mother can’t smoke due to a medical condition, but when I’m rolling something up, she’ll say, ‘Whoo, I miss that. Can you take an extra hit for me?’ My grandparents also use Cannabis medicinally. I’m glad to be in the business so I can be more educated and honor them.

If you could take your family anywhere in the world on a vacation, where would it be?
Somewhere tropical like the Bahamas or Jamaica. I’d want to experience that way of life because some of my family members have rootage in Jamaica, so I think it’d be a great experience to take them there.

About Mike Ricker

The first time Ricker smoked weed was at a Santana concert at the age of 12. He then followed in his footsteps as an award-winning radio personality who became notorious for offering a stage for bong toking listeners in 9 different markets over 20 years. In 2016, the Cannabis industry came calling and the rest is history.
