Hi, I’m Scott 👋
noun \ Hy·att \ (ˈhī-ət) · professional daydreamer, caffeine dependent life-form, crafter of pretty digital things, and occasional haver of nebulous ideas.
Scott Hieatt is a technology guru who works and plays in Los Angeles, CA. He’s survived a couple start-up’s, been a digital producer for a few creative shops, and is in constant pursuit of solutions to life’s problems, big and small. He’s been involved in a number of award-winning campaigns and has helped transform a few teams with his odd thoughts on Agile.
Scott is survived by a pair of running shoes, several screenplays he never published, and more Post-it pads than any human should ever own.
He is available for select projects, employment, friendship, and sushi. Always sushi.
