INTRODUCING HANNAH YORK!
Have you ever heard of a starving artist? Of course you have. How about that old cliche about the artist that created a solid business plan, developed a targeted market that would pay for their art and designed a solid business? Right…..that cliche is not as common.
Our guest today is that second kind of artist. Hannah York has an eye for art. Specifically she crafts her vision into artistic holiday creations for businesses around Princeton, Kentucky. She has one, VERY busy season where she must completely prioritize her business. As her reputation grows, so does the demand for this service that she provides.
Hannah is still in high school, and she is creating jobs for other people already. She purchases the agricultural decorations that she uses in her displays. Everything from corn stalks to pink pumpkins. This supports local farmers, and in turn supports the economy in her community. All of this while still in high school!
