Josh Scott

Development Manager

Josh began his career with New York Life in 2016, where he spent four years working as a Financial Professional in the Black Hills of South Dakota before transitioning to the Development Manager role in the Wyoming General Office in the spring of 2020.

In 2011 Josh earned his Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, Bachelor of Arts in Business, and a minor in Applied Statistics. Following college, Josh spent five years as a high school mathematics teacher, where he also coached high school athletics. Josh's passion for education and helping others in their progress toward success made a career with New York Life an excellent transition.

In Josh's current role, he oversees and facilitates the development of new agents in the Wyoming General Office and finds great fulfillment in helping others achieve their professional goals.

Josh's greatest joy in life is his family. His wife Amanda teaches middle school physical education in Casper and his 10-year-old daughter, Addison, enjoys basketball and volleyball. Outside of work, Josh and his family can usually be found either on a court watching their daughter play sports or in a campground enjoying the beautiful outdoors that Wyoming and the surrounding areas have to offer.
