Title: Owner

Company: Booth Studio, Inc., a photography studio

What is the best business advice you have ever received?

The best one I got and I now give to others is to take a business course for every art course that you take.

If you could choose another profession, what would it be?

A contractor, building homes.

What is the biggest risk you have ever taken in your career?

I bought a very expensive building in order to remodel it for use as a new studio, but the economy went south and my industry changed to digital photography, and I lost a lot of money.

If you could travel the world where would you start and why?

I would like to visit every country in the world, therefore I would start here in Bradenton and go one way around the world ending up back here.
