Cameron has a proven track record of building global brands over the last 25 years, making him a natural addition to our leadership team. It is an honor to have him join us.”

No company does more for that cause than LegalShield and I cannot think of a better next step than to join its mission. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to work with this remarkable team to accelerate the company’s growth and look forward to working closely with Jeff and all my new colleagues.”
Prior to joining LegalShield, Mr. Scott was the Chief Brand Officer at GoDaddy where he spent eight years helping to redefine the company’s brand, leading corporate advertising, creative, sponsorships, social and communications; driving business strategy; and helping to reposition how the company took new products and services to market. Before that, Mr. Scott held a variety of senior marketing and strategy roles at Microsoft, Yahoo! and AT&T Wireless, where he was at the forefront of innovation. He played a key role during this time in many of the digital tools and services that are now ubiquitous, including digital communications, online advertising, and development of massive-scale service platforms which have collectively become known today as “the cloud.”
