Practicing artist, student of tech and computer art. Have lived in New York for going on 8 years. I love how I keep finding cool treasures in the city. I’m from Texas. I have been giving tours of art and architecture for 10 years, working at modern art museums as well as New York City guided tours.
I recently took a Gilded Age tour in NYC with Scott, and it was truly outstanding. His professionalism was evident from the start, but what really made the experience exceptional was the way he brought history to life. Scott has a rare talent for blending solid historical knowledge with modern, current, and even pop-culture references that make the story feel relevant and engaging. He also didn’t limit himself strictly to the Gilded Age; instead, he brought in more contemporary aspects and parallels. For some people this might feel unnecessary, but for me it was the icing on the cake — the touch that made the experience feel even more authentic and complete. He came fully prepared with extra photos and visual materials that helped illustrate the details in a vivid and memorable way. It wasn’t just a tour — it felt like stepping into another era with someone who genuinely enjoys making history accessible, human, and fun. If you’re looking for something deeper and more authentic than the usual textbook explanations, I highly recommend taking this tour with Scott. It was one of the highlights of my time in New York.
Scott is awesome!
