Brief Biography
C. Scott Bolden
Born in 1968, I grew up as in a tri-racial (Black, Native American, White) upwardly mobile family in the industrial Midwest; evolving from the inner city ghetto of Buffalo, NY to the upper middle class suburbs of Detroit, MI with 7 stops in between. I earned degrees in engineering and art from the University of Michigan (Ann Arbor) and moved on to work for a well respected design consultancy in New York City in 1993. During my early professional years, I was involved in many innovative and inventive projects within the fields of product, furniture, interior, graphic, and content design. By 1997, I was involved in event conceptualization and production. In 2002, I set up my European center of operations in Berlin, Germany. I now travel between my bases in the US and Europe collaborating on various projects and events.
This wide ranging experience has enabled me with a uniquely broad perspective from which to objectively observe, analyze, innovate and problem solve. My endeavors range from project/product strategic concept development through production/manufacture to implementation & marketing across a wide variety of professioinal disciplines. In plain language; I help create, develop and implement win-win scenarios based on sound ideas.
This project, the Universal Humane Needs Assessment, is my latest attempt to synthesize my and other’s life’s experience and wisdom into a format which may very well turn out to have great benevolence towards creating a balanced and sustainable future for mankind. Essentially, everyone who wants to live a humane existence is in the project target market.
I am open to all thoughtful critical analysis, supportive and collaborative gestures.
