Born and raised in Roseburg, Oregon, Scott ventured away for 30 years, building a successful career in sales and customer service before returning in 2003. His return marked the beginning of a significant contribution to his hometown, including starting a thriving catering and festival food service business with his wife.
After returning to Roseburg, Scott’s deep-rooted connection to his community and his entrepreneurial spirit led him to join the Adapt board. His career, marked by a strong focus on customer service and community engagement, positioned him well to contribute to Adapt’s mission. Scott’s decision to serve on the board was driven by his commitment to enhancing community services and support systems in his hometown.

Scott brings a wealth of experience in community service and business management to the Adapt board. His involvement in local government as a Winston City Councilor, along with his previous contributions to the local Urban Renewal Agency, provide him with valuable insights into public service and community planning. These experiences enable him to offer unique perspectives on how Adapt can best serve its community, ensuring the organization’s initiatives are well-aligned with the community’s needs.
Being part of Adapt’s board allows me to give back to the community that shaped me. I am committed to ensuring that we continue to adapt and respond effectively to the needs of our community.
