E. Scott Osborne Headshot

I’m a writer and athlete.

Plus I run a film festival you may have heard of.

But in my past lives, I’ve been a lawyer, Peace Corps volunteer, Montessori high school teacher, non-profit director, grant writer, gender equality advocate, and a few more things.  (You can check them out here.)  I’m also a mother, which for me is pretty foundational. I’ve lived in seven countries. As a post-college grown-ass adult woman, I’ve moved and started a new life 24 times over 35 years, so no one needs to tell me how to pack a moving van. I got this.
