Debits
Knows by heart the GPS coordinates of every golf course in the Pacific Northwest – and navigates his route home accordingly.

Credits
Really doesn’t mind the view of the world from his windshield as he travels among offices.

Bottom Line
The thing that makes Scott so effective as top dog is this: he regards himself as the guy carrying the baton in the latest leg of the race. In a long line of leaders, both past and future, he knows that some day he’ll make the handoff, and when he does, you can bet our firm will be in the lead. It’s precisely this humility – this deference to our founding principles, this interest in our longevity and growth, this mindfulness of the future – that informs his leadership and governs his strategic efforts. Scott envisions a firm that is progressive both in how it serves its clients and composes its workforce – and he enlists every one of us in making daily strides toward the next stage of the relay.

Expertise That Counts
Scott joined LeMaster Daniels in 1987 and became a Member in 1996. He was elected CEO in 2000.  Scott is also the CEO of the L&D Group, which oversees our affiliate firms TROI IT Solutions and Prospera Wealth Management.  He has a range of experience working with clients in the agriculture, agribusiness, manufacturing, and retail/wholesale industries.

Proven Results
Since taking the reins in 2000, Scott has steered LeMaster Daniels to new heights of growth and success, adding four offices (including a new presence in Boise and the Puget Sound area), a specialized Tax Solutions Group, and two strategic affiliates in wealth management and technology. Under his direction, LeMaster Daniels has added both a comprehensive internal continuing professional education program and a cutting-edge leadership development program.
