"Every single teacher every single day has to be answering the 'So what?' questions. And for me, going outside answers so many of the 'So what? Why should I care?' questions. So if we're talking about water quality there's a pretty good answer for why I should care about water quality."

- Deborah Jose, Teacher, Newton High School

Scott originally hails from Richmond, Virginia where he experienced the development of urban sprawl firsthand. Long distance running further stimulated his interest in his community’s interaction with its environment and, after receiving a BA from the University of Virginia in English, he spent a summer farming with a sustainable community in Happy Camp, California. Afterwards, he was an office intern at the Center for Food Safety in Washington, DC and then a defense investigator with Georgetown University Law Center’s Criminal Justice Clinic. Scott loves the wilderness and the city, and is happy to be preserving the former by promoting the health of the latter.
