Scout Profile_300px

Hi, I'm Scout — I'm here to help!

I’m your friendly virtual assistant as you explore Blaze. Type a question or phrase to start blazing your path! 

I live in the Twin Cities suburbs, enjoy coffee, and am a dedicated Minnesota sports fan. Weekends are spent listening to a new band at a local venue or exploring a park with Cash the Dog, of course! I find purpose in helping better lives in the community.

I aim to be accurate, but always verify sources before making financial decisions.
