Scott attended Memphis State (now known as Memphis University) and graduated with this BS in Electrical Engineering in 1984.

By the end of 1996 they had hired their first full-time employee and continued to expand.

In his spare time Scott shares his technical expertise and experiences by giving demonstrations at ham radio shows, amateur radio clubs, the National Association of Broadcast Engineers, public safety system engineers, and OEM companies and speaking with students at various school events.
