Aja Cannafacturing Appoints New Member To Board of Directors

 

LAKE ELSINORE, CA--(Marketwire – Dec 29, 2014) – Aja Cannafacturing Inc. (OTCQB: AJAC) today announced that it has appointed John Lewis Mealer to its board of directors. Mr. Mealer brings with him a resume that speaks loudly to the future of Arizona, with an emphasis on sustainable and forward-thinking industrial development and as a campaigner for building the foundations for Arizona's future.

 

Mr. Mealer is an Arizona native who has spent his career developing new ideas for engineering products of many kinds, from more affordable and environmentally friendly home-building to an alternative automobile. Originally a mechanic, Mr. Mealer has always been a tinkerer and inventor, spending much of his career as an engineer and a land project developer. Mr. Mealer was a pioneer in the use of kit homes made from alternative building materials such as hemp, hay, e-crete and other cost effective solutions, helping homeowners on a budget. Mr. Mealer's lifelong interest in automobile racing and early American cars has led him to the development of an alternative automobile – the Mealer Automobile – a prototype developed over 25 years. He holds several patents associated with his automobile design, including one for a non-fossil fuel regenerative energy system to power Mealer Automobile.

 

Mr. Mealer's dedication to the future of Arizona has led him into politics as an independent candidate for governor in 2014 and now for the U.S. Senate in 2016. His primary campaign goals are to build the foundations for Arizona's long-term development through investment in a world educational system, clean industrial development, the leveling of the business playing field to encourage small and medium-sized business growth.

 

Mr. Mealer's particular experience and passion for innovation are well suited for his role on the board of Aja Cannafacturing. In a statement, Mr. Mealer has indicated his enthusiasm for Aja Cannafacturing and its future:I was thrilled to be given this opportunity to work with the team at Aja Cannafacturing and with great pleasure, have accepted their invitation to join their Board of Directors.
