Benjamin Lanton

Benjamin Lanton was born in Alachua County and moved to Brevard in 2014. Not long after graduating from high school, he began his journey with automotive paint in Melbourne, Florida. His first employer was with Auto Works Reconditioning, based out of Mississippi, where Lanton began to learn the fundamentals of painting on car lots. Over the years of his early twenties, he continued to come and go in and out of the industry, but found himself enjoying the work tremendously. Lanton feels fortunate to keep learning from his boss, Shannon, and the people around him while playing music and longboarding on weekends.
