As an architect, urban designer, and certified planner, Scott has developed broad expertise in planning for cities and campuses, as well as experience designing cultural, civic, and institutional buildings. Constantly telescoping between scales as both an architect and urban designer has contributed to his holistic understanding of design and the built environment. His belief that design can — and should — play a key role in creating equitable and livable cities drives his passion for his work. The interaction between public policy, community engagement, and the ultimate physical manifestation of the city is the center of his professional work, his commitment to academia, and his ongoing community service. Scott is an associate at David Rubin Land Collective in Washington, D.C., adjunct faculty at Virginia Tech's Washington-Alexandria Architecture Center, and appointed to the National AIA Regional & Urban Design Knowledge Community Leadership Group.
