My name is Scott Mast, and I own two well-regarded furniture stores in Palm Beach, Florida. Over the years, my stores have developed a strong local following, and across my social media platforms, I’ve built an audience of about 100,000 followers who engage with my content on design, retail, and entrepreneurship. In a previous chapter of my career, I worked for an International franchise company where I regularly MC’d events and spoke publicly on business and leadership topics — sometimes in front of crowds as large as 3,000. I've spoken at many events in many regions of the country and in over 20 countries. I’ve always felt comfortable on stage, and love blending my passion for public speaking with my work as a business owner and brand builder. I’d love to connect and explore opportunities for MC work or speaking engagements, particularly around topics like brand storytelling, retail design, small business growth, or customer experience. I’m proud of the reputation I’ve built, and I’m excited to share what I’ve learned with a wider audience. I feel strongly that events should both be informative and FUN. Please let me know if you’d like me to share a speaker reel or one-sheet. I appreciate your time and consideration. Warm regards, Scott Mast 303 596-2398 scottmast@me.com Circawho.com Mariolopeztorres.com Instagram @circawho
