After graduating from the University of Kansas in 1992 with a Bachelor of Business Administration and a Minor in Economics, he began his career in the grocery industry.

He will also attend a variety of national trade shows with the Material Handling Sales Team.
According to Scott, one of his primary goals at New Age Industrial is to educate others about the company’s unique ability to design and manufacture custom aluminum solutions.
