Our Founder

In 2008 long-time Yogi and yoga instructor, past owner/founder of Mound Street Yoga studio, and current Kinesiology PhD student.

In 2012, the Center for Healthy Minds, under the direction of Dr. Richard Davidson, partnered with Scott and YogAutism™ to research the effects of its 6-week program. The goal of the research project was to understand more about the biology of the benefits reported by those who have taken part in YogAutism™ classes. The promising results of this study are currently in press.

Scott is currently a PhD student at the University of Wisconsin - Madison in the field of Kinesiology. His research interests include yoga interventions for those on the autism spectrum. Scott serves on YogAutism's Advisory Council.
