About Scott Innes:

October 9, 1989 - Scott Innes arrived at home in a suburb of Atlanta to find a phone message from a friend in Berlin - "You won't believe it. People are climbing over the Wall for the first time and you should be here to see this with us." The very next day Scott was on a plane to Berlin.

Scott grew up in northern California and became a passionate world traveler after his first experience as an exchange student to Holland. He lived with a Dutch family there and it changed his life. When he returned to the mainland he wanted to experience more of the world. He applied and was accepted into a special training program to become a Cryptologic linguist in the U.S. Air Force. He received his Diploma from the world renowned Defense Language Institute in Monterey, California and eventually moved to Berlin where he worked as an intelligence reporter and linguist in the early 1980s before the Wall fell. His work included intelligence gathering for the Air Force and National Security Agency. From his base in Berlin he traveled extensively throughout Europe making lifelong friends with people from different cultures and walks of life. Scott is an excellent listener and has the ability to connect with people on a personal level and understand different points of view. He is well liked and personable.

After the Air Force Scott moved to Georgia where he spent 16 years before settling on Maui. He studied business and marketing at Georgia State University and got his BBA in 1991. He worked full time in mortgage banking while attending college. His experience in mortgage banking includes positions as a loan officer, quality control specialist, and closing clerk in retail and wholesale lending.

Scott spent 14 years in the travel industry in sales and marketing for KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Globus & Cosmos, American Hawaii Cruises, Crystal Cruises and Blue Hawaiian Helicopters. Working in the travel industry was exciting for him and afforded the opportunity to travel extensively and make new friends with people from every corner of the globe. One of his favorite experiences was seeing the cry's of joy on peoples faces crossing the border to freedom for the first time at the Berlin Wall. That evening he had dinner and talked with cousins of his friends who were visiting their house for the first time and who only lived a few miles away across the Wall. It was an experience he will never forget.

Scott has held positions as Regional Sales Manager and web consultant for luxury cruise line - Crystal Cruises. Crystal Cruises represents the best in travel, both in the travel experience and in unique world-wide destinations. The Crystal attitude captures the sprit of excellence and classic service which has became a part of who Scott is and how he communicates with people.
