Scott's Story
Scott is from Alexandria, Virginia. His last position was as a Vice President for Government Affairs fat the American Sportfishing Association. Prior to joining ASA....Scott served for 6 1/2 years as VP for Space Systems at Lockheed Martin.
Scott moved to DC and took a position with the Office of the Secretary of Defense as a Presidential Management Intern way back in 1978 right after earning an MPA at CSU Fullerton. Went on to work at OMB-(President Reagan's budget office), the US Senate Appropriations and Budget Committees....and the House Appropriations Committee. Served as Deputy Under Secretary and during 2001 as Acting Administrator and Under Secretary of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration or NOAA....the agency that runs the National Weather Service, Fisheries Service, Ocean Service, Environmental Satellite Service and research (from oceans to weather to climate). Spent a year in 2007/2008 as head of government affairs for the National Marine Manufacturers Assn (recreational boat manufacturers)...before being recruited by LM.
My DC career was known for bipartisanship...was the se...Expand for more
nior NOAA civil servant in both Pres. Clinton and Pres. Bush W administrations. I spent 17 years on Capitol Hill....5 for Republican Chairmen like Judd Gregg of New Hampshire and Ted Stevens of Alaska.....12 for Democrats like Fritz Hollings of South Carolina and Daniel K. Inouye of Hawaii. Alas....someone who can work for either side is no longer seen as an attribute.
After 36 years in the East....I still don't like winter...and can tolerate humidity.
Married to Ann the Nurse...no kids.....have a Beagle... Buddy. Buddy is in control of our relationship....we are in love with the same dog.
My mother lives in Dana Point...so I get home to the OC once in awhile.
Have been helping CSUF and the State University system with creating a DC program that provides internships for CSUF, and CSU students.
Apparently my previous profile that Classmates drafted...somehow....emphasized several times that I support the Liverpool Football Club. True. I lived in Liverpool for a year as an undergrad learned to sing "You'll Never Walk Alone".
Looking forward to the class of 74 Reunion on August 16 (Madonna's Birthday!!!!)
