About the instructor

As a Business Analyst at McKinsey & Co, Scott began working with Excel to analyze financial statements and help conduct due diligence on M&A projects.

After receiving his MBA from the Kellogg School of Management, he built forecasting models and performed valuations for various dot-com disasters.

In addition, Scott worked at a hedge fund, ran the Finance Department for an AdTech firm, and moonlighted as an adjunct finance professor. He currently serves as V.P. of Data Analytics for a P.E.-backed healthcare concern.

According to his calculations, Scott’s workshop pays a dividend of greater value than the total return on a two-year investment in a Stanford M.B.A.
