Profile Information

My web address:

About me:
Scott graduated from Bowling Green State University in 2001 with a B.S. in Visual Communications Technology. He drove the 8,000 miles from Ohio to Minnesota, living briefly outside of Minneapolis for two years. At that time Scott helped job train the mentally impaired for the state of Minnesota. After two years in Minnesota, he went on to join the Peace Corps and served in Guyana from 2003 to 2005. While in Guyana, Scott was an IT volunteer with the World Wildlife Fund, promoting environmental causes through collaborations with organizations such as UN Volunteers, U.S.AID, The Wishbone Project/Smile Train, Iwokrama, and the Guyana Marine Turtle Conservation Society. Post-Peace Corps, Scott moved to Washington, DC and wore a tie for two years while working in a cubicle for the FAA and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Scott joined Idealist in January 2008 and took off the tie.
