I hired Scott to edit my book "Practical Product Management," as I am not a native English speaker. Not only did he do a perfect job fixing grammar issues, he also applied a more informal and conversational style that made the book more pleasant to read. On top of that, he shared some of his views on the subject that inspired me to improve the content. And all of that well within our agreed time and budget! I would highly recommend Scott for any copywriting / editing work and will for sure call on his talents when I write another book!

I have had the privilege of knowing Scott since I hired him as a writer/producer at FLIR Systems. As a direct report of mine, Scott was someone I knew I could count on. His writing and grammar skills are excellent, as are his abilities to manage projects and effectively collaborate with others. I often called on Scott to work directly with product development and end users to collect information needed to create articles. He successfully ghostwrote several thought leadership articles for some of our most respected technology experts. In every case, the feedback I received regarding Scott was always positive. Scott was also instrumental in creating content for one of FLIR’s largest product launches, resulting in several innovation awards and an increase in the value of FLIR stock. I would recommend anyone looking for a quality content creator to hire Scott.
