A retired Chief of Police with 25 years of experience spanning special operations, undercover narcotics, SWAT command, and DEA task force work, Scott brings operational credibility to prevention advocacy that bridges the gap between the patrol car and the policy table. A recipient of the NHTSA Public Service Award, Medal of Valor, and Purple Heart, Scott holds a Master of Public Administration and Ph.D. in Urban Studies with a concentration in Organizational Administration from the University of New Orleans. He is a published author of nearly 50 books and a frequent voice on public safety technology, impaired driving prevention, and officer wellness.
