About Scott

After a successful career as an entrepreneur in technology, the one thing I believe made me most successful was my ability to relate to people. When you can make people feel good about their lives, inspire them to do better, make them laugh, engage them in interesting conversation - that is a great feeling. As a child I watched how difficult it was for my grandparents to get around, my mother is in her upper 80's now, and has the spirit and sharpness of a 25 year old but needs help doing simple physical tasks. I want to use my spare time to put a smile on a person's face, encourage them to look forward to another day of life, and help keep them healthy both physically and mentally. Life is short, we need to make it better for those who are challenged with older age. This is why I enjoy being a caregiver!

It has been my privilege to lovingly care for elderly people with dementia, starting with my mother-in-law. I enjoy entering their world and showing them the dignity, respect and gentle care our elders should have. I have become the trusted companion of each person I’ve cared for, and have served several of them for years at a time. Support for the family of the person I am companion to is a special part of my ministry. I am currently a part-time seminary student and simply love people. My desire is to bring joy and wisdom in caregiving to those I serve.
