About the guest
Scott’s journey to leading and coaching began with being a Royal Canadian Air Cadet from the age of 14-18. This experience led him to join the Canadian Armed Forces and attend the College Militaire Royale de St Jean (CMR). He played college basketball throughout his time there. After university, he went on to obtain his pilot wings as a helicopter pilot for the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF). Scott served on three Tactical Helicopter Squadrons of the RCAF in various roles, including as a Tactical Instructor Pilot. He honed his operational planning skills as a lead operational planner for the 1st Canadian Air Division and as the Chief of Curriculum Development for the Canadian Army Staff College in Fort Frontenac. As the head of operations and subsequently Chief of Staff for 1 Wing in the RCAF, Scott was given the responsibility to plan and deploy helicopter forces for the war in Afghanistan, for which he earned a Meritorious Service Medal (MSM). He earned a second MSM for leading the Air Component responding in the aftermath of the tragic earthquake in Haiti in 2010.
