Scott Landers grew up on a farm in Texas, forced to grow up quickly and tend to the needs of the farm. Some days that meant driving the tractor and some days that meant ditching the broken down tractor to walk 40 acres back home. This early education prepared Scott for hard work with grit and determination, but it didn’t come without its challenges as there was a learning curve when it came to working with others as opposed to always “cowboying it” on his own.



About Scott Landers
