Hi, I’m Scott.
I’m a senior higher education executive with two decases of experience turned consultant, advisor, coach, and speaker. I have held leadership roles at California College of the Arts, Stanford University, and Chapman University, specializing in enrollment management and marketing, financial aid, technology and operations, and auxiliary services.
I earned my Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership and Administration from San Francisco State University, a Master of Arts in Education Leadership and Administration, and a Bachelor of Arts in History with a minor in Political Science from Chapman University.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the privilege of serving in leadership positions within various professional organizations. I’m a past president of both the California Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators (CASFAA) and the Western Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators (WASFAA). I also served as the primary negotiator for financial aid administrators with the U.S. Department of Education on the Title IV Loans Negotiated Rulemaking Committee, where we developed the REPAYE program. Additionally, I contributed as a subject matter expert to the College Cost Transparency Initiative task force.
I live in San Francisco, CA and occassionally climb mountains (Mt. Shasta, pictured above).
