About the Firm
Dry Mill Consulting is the story of a road less traveled. After a judicial clerkship, a stint prosecuting cases for the United States Department of Justice, and twenty years competing at the highest levels of “Big Law” in Washington DC, our founding partner stepped off the hamster wheel to look for new challenges. And that’s nothing new. Scott is an instrument-rated Bonanza pilot who has sailed a brigantine, stranded himself on a deserted island in the South Pacific, through-hiked the Highline trail, and swam with sharks in the Gulf of Mexico (and with Shakira though that is a longer story).
