Rick Piccolo, the longtime president and CEO of Sarasota Bradenton International Airport, has devoted his career to the aviation industry. Fresh out of high school, he started as a janitor at Buffalo Niagara International Airport (SRQ). He worked his way up through airfield maintenance into management before moving on to different jobs at airports in Florida. He gives credit for his ascension to several mentors who recognized his talent and offered him opportunities. SRQ, which has seen significant growth under Piccolo’s watch, is giving back through the establishment of a charter school and various internship programs aimed at helping the next generation access aviation careers.
