About Elizabeth Scott

After working at Baskin Robbins in high school, Liz Scott realized that a career in ice cream wasn’t a sustainable plan since she frequently spent more money on the product than she earned. Her first nonprofit job was as a program analyst and once she began her career in nonprofits, Liz never looked back (although, she can still make a great milkshake). You can learn more about why Liz started Brighter Strategies and her work here.
