Alaska's Ambassador.

When someone else goes to over 250 Alaskan villages, they can take the title." - Scott Norman

Who is Scott Norman?


Scott attended Webster University in St. Louis, obtaining a B.A. in Media Communications.
Scott’s first job after college was at KYUK-TV in Bethel, Alaska. Bethel is 90 miles from the Bering Sea & is the largest community off of the road & ferry system.
Scott moved to Wasilla Alaska in 1998, eventually forming his own private investigation firm.
While working as a private investigator, Scott was hired by the USDA to serve as the Food Stamp Compliance Officer for Alaska. From 1999-2001, Scott traveled to over 250 villages in Alaska, crossing the Arctic Circle 20 times per year.
In 1999, Scott joined Rotary International and has been active ever since, serving both as club president and club charter president.
Scott is proud of his Native American heritage (Eastern Cherokee, Shoshone. & Iroquois). He is also the great grandson of Jim Baker, the friend of mountain man & explorer Jim Bridger.
Scott does not drink, smoke, or do drugs, but you’d better have the coffee on!
