His command experience includes Deputy Commanding General, Joint Special Operations Command, Fort Bragg, North Carolina and combat units at squadron, group, and wing levels.
Immediately after retiring from the military in 2009, Gen. Scott became Director of the Tampa Office, Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC) where he worked with IBM and other industry partners to exploit advances in machine learning for the warfighter. This effort led to a long term relationship with the founders of @RISK leadership as advisor, board member, and leadership consultant through a series of companies, joint ventures, and cyber initiatives.
Gen. Scott now resides in Tampa, Florida, where he serves on the board of 8 non-profits supporting veteran issues, preserving WWII vessels, promoting high speed ferry transit options, and stimulating development of the innovation ecosystem within Tampa Bay.
