About Scott
By day, I am a solutions designer and application developer in Illinois for a variety of healthcare and media-server applications. I work with client/server systems, relational database design, multi-threading, object orientation, media distribution networks, and other geeky stuff.
By night I am a proud husband and father, doodler, and part-time voiceover artist to the world.
Backstory: I was raised in Montana and am a child of the 70’s-80’s. I saw Raiders of the Lost Ark 17 times in the theater when it came out in 1981 (when it cost $1.75 for an afternoon show, at “Cine 3″ – a theater with a whopping three screens). I thought that the Dukes of Hazard was the coolest show on earth, and I thought that Peter Scalari from “Bosom Buddies” was going to go far in the entertainment business. To me, Steve Austin will always be a bionic man, and not a pro wrestler. I somehow survived breakdancing. I still have a bit of a crush on Heather Locklear.
Emerging from adolesence, I received a Bachelor’s degree in Art and Sociology from Montana State University, and worked as a radio personality and a TV weather man for a number of years. I was also the Production Manager of a community access cable station and a field service technician for a video-on-demand company. I am now a senior propeller-head at a technology company, designing software solutions for healthcare information systems.
