Rico Racosky
Rico Racosky was raised in a small PA coal mining and steel town, with strong interests in art and airplanes. Even though his family worked in the mines, Rico dreamed of staying “way above the ground”—of being a pilot. Both art and aviation are “steered” by VISUALS. Rico’s first 18 years included creating landscape paintings, cartoons, and wood carvings. As he was heading to college (graphic design), the Air Force gave him the chance to fly jets—a very VISUAL career—where key information is based on creative design of colorful warning symbols so pilots understand instantly the critical choices to make for safety. His creativity as an artist, pilot, and author shows in his 3 books about consistently making positive choices: Just2Choices®; dreams + action = Reality®; Go Vertical—Life Has No Ceiling. His flying covers F16 fighter jets, airliners, sea planes, gliders. He graduated from the U.S. Air Force Academy, and earned a Master’s at the Univ. of Southern California. Rico is the Founder of The Choice Industry.
