Scott lived in the Washington DC area where his love for food began in his teens and his mentors were Julia Child, Jacques Pépin and Jean Louis Palladin.

While in Washington, DC, Scott taught private cooking classes taking his students on tours to restaurants and up-scale food outlets; and catered for several federal and state officials.

In 1992, Chef Scott began his work in education as an advocate for children’s education for multi-channel cable initiatives such as “Cable in the Classroom” and “Assignment Discovery”.

Scott moved his family to North Texas in 1996 where he continued his education in ministry, communication and family crisis management. Scott has raised funds for missions and youth educational programs.

After having consulted the best in TV and Radio broadcasting, the concept of Chefsville™ was developed. Chefsville will expand Chef Scott’s influence to reach an international audience.
