Most recently, he worked at the Comedy & Magic Club and Zane’s Restaurant in Hermosa Beach. With his take-charge personality, Scott was not only everyone’s favorite coworker, they considered Scott a really good friend.
Scott was very outgoing and extremely social. He enjoyed being around people and was always the life of the party. He had a natural ability to make others feel comfortable and welcome.
