Growing up in Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, Scott McCullers wasn’t enthusiastic about politics until he enrolled in several classes on global politics at the University of North Florida. His interest was sparked: he majored in International Relations and Politics and became involved with the on-campus Public Service Leadership Program.
This program led Scott to an internship overseas in Tanzania with the United Nations World Food Program, another internship with Senator Marco Rubio in his Jacksonville office, and finally one with the Jacksonville-based nonprofit GlobalJax. After moving to Washington DC, Scott started working on the House Judiciary Committee as the Committee’s Coalitions Director, and recently moved to the Microsoft government affairs office.
He is currently pursuing an MBA at Georgetown University, to complement his policy work and bridge the gap between policy makers and the tech sector. Scott admires Mr. Bryce Harlow and his legacy. “Mr. Harlow embodied integrity and expertise in the lobbying profession. He dedicated the weight of his talents toward the public good,” Scott said.
