Craig Litwin

A top signature-gatherer for Proposition 215, Craig went on to become a Sebastopol Council Member and Mayor, co-authoring one of the nation’s first dispensary ordinances. He has testified before county supervisors throughout the state and has been a driving force behind Santa Rosa’s dispensary and cultivation ordinances and Clearlake’s rejection of a cultivation ban.

Shanti Devi
FINANCE MANAGER + TREASURER
As a Yogini and Bookkeeper, Shanti understands Finance is the breath of a business.
​
A native Californian, Shanti has spent her adult life with one foot in Health/Fitness and the other in Bookkeeping/Business Admin. Working with 421 Group brings a great balance of the two. From an early age, Shanti has seen the world in numbers and understands that bringing numbers into the light can help business owners make smarter, more informed decisions. For over 3 decades she has honed her bookkeeping skills in multiple industries. Cannabis and bookkeeping have traditionally been oil and water; not so with Shanti. Out of the shoebox and into a Profit and Loss is her bookkeeping Mantra.
​
Shanti earned her AA degree at SRJC. She is a certified Yoga Teacher/Therapist and an Ayurveda and fitness enthusiast. She likes to read, hang out with family/friends, study self-development and learn about the world around her.
