About Me
I’m Scott—a hospice chaplain, spiritual companion, and celebrant living on the Central Oregon coast.
My path hasn’t been a straight line. I spent years in the business world before choosing a life grounded in service, healing, and presence. That shift came not from dogma, but from a deeper call to live from the heart.
As a chaplain, I meet people where they are—whether that’s rooted in a faith tradition, spiritual but not religious, unsure, grieving, or simply seeking connection. I don’t bring a script. I bring presence. Quiet listening. And an open-hearted approach that honors who you are.
My own spirituality is fluid and grounded: shaped by nature, compassionate action, and the simple moments that make us human. I find connection in beach/forest walks, in the silence between words, and in the sacredness of both life and loss.
Whether I’m blessing a boat, sitting beside a dying person, guiding a wedding or memorial, or helping someone navigate spiritual questions, my aim is the same: to be a steady, respectful presence.
This work is sacred to me. And it’s personal. I come not to impose, but to walk alongside.
I offer chaplain services for individuals, families, organizations, and communities - both in-person on the Central Coast and remotely.
