Where it all began

Scott worked part-time for Yards of Aiken while in college on a soccer scholarship at Lander University. He graduated from Lander in 2003 with a Bachelor of Arts in Business Administration.

Scott then moved to the Philadelphia area and worked for two years with Curry Tree Service in Wayne, PA. He came back to his home town of Aiken in 2005 and went to work full time for Tom Rapp (certified Horticulturist and Arborist and owner of Yards of Aiken) as the operations manager.
