Scott Potter
Scott Alan Potter is originally from eastern Kentucky where his father established a highly successful practice in medicine lasting over forty years and over 30,000 patients. Immediately following Prestonsburg high school he attended Mayo State Vocational School to enter Machine Design and Manufacturing. He then attended Prestonsburg Community College (now BSCTC) for two years. Afterwards, he attended the University of Kentucky where he began experiencing a truly profound education in one of the top political science and philosophy programs in the country at that time. Scott has also performed as a professional musician/singer/songwriter. With the inspiration from his College English teacher he wrote volumes over the next twenty years hoping to write for a living. Scott attended an accredited business computer school where his background in logic and philosophy sent him gliding through with honors as an Administrative PC Specialist. Upon graduation he was immediately picked up by Entex Information Services and was promptly promoted several times to become a technical writer for custom configured computer systems and upgrades. Scott then taught two semesters in PC Communications and Networking at Southern Ohio College. Scott now has fifteen years and nearly a dozen certifications as a technical consultant with a proven and dynamic history. Scott has always been a prolific writer in sociology, political science, philosophy, history and mathematics.
