Described as “the people’s weed watchdog” in Boston Magazine’s 2019 Power List, she was widely recognized during her term for her focus on racial justice and her efforts to make the cannabis industry more fair and inclusive.

Previously, in her role as a founding board member of the Minority Cannabis Business Association, she led the creation of the MCBA Model Bill, the first state-level model bill created to give states guidance to implement a process of reinvestment and reconciliation. She also served as a trustee for Students for Sensible Drug Policy and a board member of the National Lawyers Guild. She is a co-founder of THC Staffing Group, a recruiting firm focused on inclusion in the cannabis industry.

Title has been interviewed by outlets including PBS NewsHour, Politico, Rolling Stone, Newsweek, The Guardian, Vice News, and several NPR stations, and she has written guest op-eds for The Boston Globe, Philadelphia Inquirer, Commonwealth Magazine, and Boston Business Journal.
