Scott's Story
Life
Married Connie Reed 8/85 in Odessa and divorced 8/92.
Married Denise 7/97. Met her in Bakersfield, CA where I was working as a Technical Manager in a new roofing plant startup for Elk Corporation. We have two children - McKenah born 5/20/99 and Brandt born 2/1/03. We left Bakersfield in 2001 and currently live in Midlothian, Tx, about 30 miles south of Dallas.
School
I was pretty quiet in high school with a small circle of friends, most of which I have lost touch with over the years.
College
After graduating Permian, I moved to Alaska and attended the University of Alaska, Anchorage. I spent one year there majoring in Accounting. Once I got into intermediate accounting, I found the people and courses too "stuffy" and changed to engineering. In my sophomore year I transferred to Texas Tech and ultimately got my degree in Mechanical Engineering. I took a year and a half off from school and went back to Alaska to work on the North Slope, Prudhoe Bay,...Expand for more
as a roustabout in the oifields (Prudhoe & Kuparak)and then as en environmental technician - both for Standard Oil of Ohio (now BP). After getting frustrated by the work and the engineers who couldn't design their way out of a wet paper bag, I went back to Tech to finish my degree, graduating in 1988.
