Scott Morgan graduated from Florida State University and spent fifteen years in the tech industry. Wanting to transition into a more fulfilling field, he then earned an MPA from New York University in Nonprofit Management, Policy, and Health. His work in graduate school was focused on HIV in low-income settings, and his previous work as a manager in the tech world led to an easy transition into the nonprofit sector.
For the past seven years, Scott has worked with a large community-based clinic in Haiti focusing on HIV, TB, and cardiovascular disease. He brings twenty years of nonprofit experience and is in the latest chapter of his life starting work as an end-of-life doula. The AIDS crisis in the 1980s left an indelible mark on Scott, which strongly influenced him to pursue work as a doula. His belief that no one should die alone and that death can be a beautiful transition is the driving force behind his doula work. Scott received his doula training from the Peaceful Presence Project and is a volunteer at Jamaica Medical Center in the palliative care unit. Scott lives in New York, NY.
