Article by The Tri-Cities Area Journal of Business:

This issue marks our inaugural “Young Entrepreneurs” section, starting on page 11. The feature celebrates those youthful business leaders who stand out in their field, accomplish great things today and will likely continue to shine for the rest of their careers.

For the past few months we’ve been promoting the nomination process, and nominate you did. We received far more recommendations than we’re able to include, and choosing from such a pool of talented individuals proved quite challenging. Ultimately, we tried to pick dynamic visionaries from a variety of industries.

We hope this section encourages mentoring, and that the more established members of our business community embrace the contributions of their younger colleagues.

From achieving high levels of success in their given professions to excelling within their own companies, this hardworking, dynamic group of young leaders proves their future—and that of the Mid-Columbia business community—is bright.

All Young Entrepreneurs’ photos were taken by Eric Schultheiss, owner of Essence Photography, located in historic downtown Kennewick. Reach him at (509) 531-0034 and view his portfolio online at www.essenceapc.com.
