In addition, Urban Pacific provides project and development services to major commerical businesses across the nation through their subsidiary, Urban Pacific Realty Advisors.
With more than 35 years in the development business, Scott is an innovator in the fields of urban housing, mixed use projects, and affordable/middle income housing communities throughout the western U.S.
When he isn't working, Scott enjoys spending time with his wife of 26 years, Becky, and their three children.
