Scott Collins

President and CEO

A veteran of the PC and dot.com revolutions, Scott cut his PR teeth working at the big high tech PR firms, supporting companies like Compaq and Cabletron (IYKYK) and leading in-house PR and marketing teams at a couple of high-tech start-ups. Following the boom and bust of the early 2000s, he found his home in the world of healthcare technology and has never looked back.

Scott joined Aria in 2003 to help grow a then fledgling PR practice, and over the years helped transform the agency into the healthcare thought leadership PR and marketing leader it is today. He acquired the agency in early 2014.

After more than two-and-a-half decades in healthcare and technology marketing, Scott has become a trusted leader in the industry with deep experience in strategy, positioning and thought leadership. He brings that experience to his work mentoring the Aria team, leading positioning workshops, writing articles and partnering with clients on strategic plans and day-to-day issues.

Scott holds a BA in English from Kenyon College and an MA in Communications from Emerson College. Born in NYC, Scott has lived in Ohio and New Hampshire and currently resides in Milton, MA, but his true love is Cape Cod where he spends as much time as he can.
