Over the past decade I have booked hundreds of presenters for our events and Scott undoubtedly stands out as one of the most engaging and captivating speakers that we have had the privilege of learning from. For a full hour he had the audience both laughing and crying as he spoke about his experiences. He was able to relate his story to listeners on many different levels, not only as a person living with a disability, but as a father, and as a person dealing with all of lifes usual ups and downs. Scott really raised the bar with his presentation at the World Congress and Exposition on Disabilities. His talk perfectly captured the spirit of our event, which is we are all the same.
