Adam Hicks Wins Saskatchewan Student Entrepreneur Competition

Congratulations goes out to a friend of mine, Adam Hicks, who recently was crowned the Saskatchewan Student Entrepreneur Competition Champion for 2008. Adam started his company, Adam Hicks Painting Enterprises, in 2007. The company provides residential painting services under the College Pro Painters brand and he has also branched out to buying and flipping houses in the Regina market as well.

I've known Adam since high school and also took business classes with him at the U of R. He's probably one of the most intelligent people I know and always seems to have a new idea or project to work on. In addition to his business ventures, he's also working to put together Dancing With Regina's Stars April 26, 2008 at the Conexus Arts Centre. You can visit www.dancinregina.com for more information on that event.

Congratulations Adam and good luck in Calgary at the regional competition on February 29th!
