Direct Line: 443-595-3120
Scott was born and raised in Baltimore. He grew up in the city and went to Gilman School and later on to Washington and Lee University, where he studied German Literature. His love of basketball actually landed him his first job in the insurance business. A fellow hoop player was working at USF&G and needed someone to work for him. He was a broke and an unemployed liberal arts major so he was glad to oblige. He stayed at USF&G for four great years. Along the way, he earned the CPUC, AI, and AAI designations, and specialized in insurance management information and programming. In 1990, Scott and his wife, Beth House, started an insurance agency and enjoyed that side of the business for 10 years. His favorite things in life are his family and playing basketball, piano, gardening, computer programming, and movies!
