Men of Success 2025 – Scorpio Lamonte

Scorpio Lamonte
Scorpio Lamonte Eyewear
Scorpio first built his name through an elegant, signature collection of eyewear. But today, his influence stretches far beyond fashion.
“I actually evolved my company into more of a brand,” he explains. “Now everything is under Scorpio Lamonte.” That brand includes Scorpio Lamonte Eyewear and his growing platform for mentorship and public speaking, Hope Elevation with Scorpio Lamonte.
What started as a one-time favor—stepping in as a keynote speaker at a women’s conference—became a life-defining moment. “I spoke about the power women possess, often unseen but deeply felt. The feedback was overwhelming,” he recalls.
Since then, Scorpio’s words and wisdom have resonated with students, professionals, and communities across Lake County and beyond. Through Hope Elevation, he speaks on topics ranging from fashion and finance to faith and personal growth. He’s also a mentor with Take Stock in Children and serves on the board of a Christian academy.
Meanwhile, Scorpio Lamonte Eyewear continues to thrive as a stylish extension of his identity—distinct, confident and always ready for the spotlight.
“We all have an innate power to achieve—we just need to embrace it,” he says.
