LIVING THE AMERICAN DREAM

Senator Scott was raised in the Midwest by his mother, who worked several jobs to make ends meet, and adoptive father, a World War II veteran and truck driver.

Senator Scott lived in public housing and got his first job at the age of seven and hasn’t stopped working since. After marrying his high school sweetheart, Ann, Scott joined the Navy, where he served active duty as a radar man aboard the USS Glover.

He bought his first business, a donut shop, while still in college at the University of Missouri-Kansas City so his mom could have a job. Scott went on to run the world’s largest healthcare company and various other businesses until 2010 when he made the decision to run for Governor to change the direction Florida was headed in.

Senator Scott and his wife, Ann, have been married since they were 19.
