Rabbi Scott, from Akron, Ohio, received her ordination from the Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion in Cincinnati, Ohio in June 2004. A graduate of the University of Cincinnati, she received her Bachelor of Arts with Honors in Judaic Studies in 1998. While an undergraduate student, she attended a one-year course at Ben Gurion University in BeerSheva, Israel. Upon graduation from the University of Cincinnati, Rabbi Scott moved to Texas to assume a one-year fellowship with the Hillel Foundation of Greater Houston.

Following her position at Hillel, Rabbi Scott attended rabbinical school from 1999-2004. After spending her first year in Jerusalem, Israel, she returned to the Cincinnati, Ohio campus. During her time at HUC, Rabbi Scott served pulpits in Illinois, Indiana, Mississippi, and Florida. Additionally, she was very involved in both choral and orchestral groups throughout her rabbinical school career. Rabbi Scott and her husband returned to Houston in June 2004.
