About Andrea Scott
My name is Andrea Scott (Ms. Impactor).I’ve always been passionate about storytelling and impressed by the influence it has on people and the decisions they make in life. I love engaging with the projects I work on, diving headfirst into the research, investigation, and production of stories I feel are worth writing about. My inspiration come from my community, family, students, and my dreams.
