Scott Burrows was a star athlete and fierce competitor. By the age of 19, he played college football at Florida State University as a walk-on wide receiver and was a top-ranked kick-boxing Black Belt champion whose last fight was broadcast by ESPN.

During the height of his collegiate career, his life changed dramatically. On November 3rd, 1984, he survived a terrible automobile accident as a passenger in his friend’s car, suffering a critical and life-threatening spinal cord neck injury that left him paralyzed from the chest down and diagnosed a quadriplegic. To achieve extraordinary results from that point forward in both his personal and professional life, Scott learned how to harness a clear VISION, an unstoppable MINDSET and tremendous GRIT. Three simple words, with so much meaning and impact behind them, can be very powerful to any person or organization when put into action!
