When she’s not modeling for labels like Gucci and Louis Vuitton, she’s developing a growing collection of original apps. After graduating from Amherst College with a degree in computer science in 2006, Scott took a risk – at the encouragement of her friends – and pursued a career in modeling instead of a job in Silicon Valley. In 2009, she was the first African American to sign an exclusive contract to model for Calvin Klein at New York fashion week, followed by gigs for powerhouse labels like Vera Wang and DKNY. Today, in addition to modeling, Scott has released five apps for Apple products, including one called Code Made Cool that encourages more girls to explore computer science.
