"I've known Scott since 2011, when he served as my adviser and mentor at Sonoma State University. Over more than a decade, he's remained one of the most consistent, generous, and positive influences in my growth, both personally and professionally.

As my adviser, he played a central role in my leadership development as a student, pushing me toward opportunities I wouldn't have pursued on my own and also giving me the space to figure things out. That support has carried well beyond graduation. He's continued checking in, offering advice, and celebrating milestones with enthusiasm for years since.

His background in nonprofit work gave him a mission-driven perspective, and that same gift for bringing out the best in people makes him a natural fit for teaching. I'm proud to call him a mentor and now a friend, and any community he joins is so lucky to have him."
