Who is Scott?

3:30 PM | Posted by Scott | Edit Post

My name is Scott Means, founder of and principle contributor to The Journey to Surrender.

In case you care, here are few facts about me.

I was born in Nebraska.
I am 50+ years old.
I’ve been married for over 30 years to my lovely wife, Jenni. More about her at this link
We met in sixth grade, were high school sweethearts and got married just out of college. Click for more of Our Story.
We have three wonderful, talented and beautiful daughters, ranging in age from 17-25.
I have a BSEE from Virginia Tech and an MSEE from Georgia Tech.
I spent 25 years in engineering and engineering management, but the past few years I’ve been a global product manager for an industrial machinery manufacturer.
I’ve been playing the guitar since middle school. Music has always been a very important part of my life.
I’ve been involved in worship leading since college, though more seriously and consistently in the past 15 years.
For the guitar aficionados among you, I play a Taylor 710CE acoustic and a Gibson Les Paul electric.
Although guitar is my main instrument, I also play bass and a little keyboard and dabble at a few others. I have a long list of instruments I still want to learn how to play.
I enjoy songwriting, especially writing worship songs for my local church.
I have a small scale digital recording studio in my basement, which is badly neglected these days.
My other hobbies, which I also have little time for, include woodworking and photography.
My passion for marriages has grown in recent years out of my desire to understand my own role as a husband. If you want to learn more about the genesis of this blog, check out About The Journey to Surrender.

Since this is probably a lot more than anyone actually cares about, I’ll quit here.
