We had the good fortune of connecting with Turo Jones and we’ve shared our conversation below.
Hi Turo, how do you think about risk?
Growing up in a small town in Virginia (Buckingham County) life there is a gamble. When I left and ventured out and started networking and putting myself in position so that I can succeed and grow my business so that I can get to the next level. I’m just playing the cards that’s being dealt to me and I say that to say I’m a entrepreneur that’s self maid from the ground up I got my hustle from my grandfather and my dad at a young age I saw what it took to grind to get what you want in life and ain’t nothing handed to you. So I took a risk at the age of 17 yrs old that changed my life and molded me into the person I am now 31 yrs old self maid entrepreneur (Celebrity Photographer/Master Barber)
Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I’m a very creative person my mind thinks like no other. I’ve grown so much over the years with my business and as an individual crushing goals I set for myself and NO it wasn’t easy a lot of late nights early morning grinding and sacrifice. I’ve learn to cherish those whose really there in your corner and been down since the beginning because what I want the world to know about me and my brand is that it’s love and passion with 2Shotz Production and 2Da Barber brand
