Scott Finn
President & CEOScott's mission is to help Vermont Public reach a broader and more diverse audience through stories that bring people together. Scott worked as a 6th grade teacher, community organizer, and journalist before being chosen in 2013 to lead West Virginia Public Broadcasting. He became President and CEO of Vermont Public Radio in 2018, and helped facilitate the merger of VPR and Vermont PBS two years later.
Scott, his wife and their two children live not far from Mount Mansfield, where he loves to hike, snowshoe and generally play in the woods.
