Drawing on decades of executive leadership, cross-cultural consulting, and lived experience in Israel, including service in the Israel Defense Forces, Craig brings a uniquely grounded and historically informed perspective to the challenges facing liberal democracies in the digital age. Craig's career spans more than two decades of CEO-level leadership. As Partner and a key executive at Kaya Holdings, a publicly traded company, he oversaw corporate strategy, operations, compliance, and financial performance, building a vertically integrated platform with retail, cultivation, and proprietary brands.
