The beginning of Scott's career was in advertising and marketing with successful television and radio shows in the Philadelphia-Atlantic City media market. As a person in recovery he found himself wanting to expand his professional life into areas that were more beneficial to those who were in need. Scott spent several years working for the state of New Jersey as a Social Worker and Grant Writer running family self-sufficiency programs. He then transitioned into working directly with recovering addicts in the areas of residential recovery, addiction brain chemistry and program management.
