Scott is the President of a single family office and private trust company. He uses his legal, finance, and conflict resolution background to shape structures, processes, and patterns of behavior to help the family he serves flourish over the long-term.

Scott writes about family enterprise issues, and occasionally will post such writings here. 

Most of my career he has been a law professor at the University of Colorado Law School in Boulder, Colorado. There Scott taught contract law, negotiation, counseling family enterprises, the law of non-profits, and legal ethics. He have written books and academic work on these topics, as well as on privacy law and emerging technologies.

Scott is also an ordained priest and transmitted Soto Zen teacher in the related lineages of Kobun Chino Otakawa and Keibun Otakawa. He practices at the Hakubai Zen Center in Boulder, Colorado.
