Scott is a 28 year old IT consultant who moved to the Sunshine Coast when he was 6 years old and attended Mountain Creek State Primary and State High Schools and now lives in Nambour. He is the father of two young boys aged four and two. Both boys have spent most of their lives in and out of hospital and the Anderson family have experienced firsthand the uncertainty and stress that can be caused by cuts to local health services.
Scott endures the commute to Brisbane each day to work in the IT industry. He understands the daily frustration many coast residents face in commuting and the tremendous difficulties they face in trying to find suitable employment on the coast.
As a resident of the Sunshine Coast for the past 22 years, Scott feels a strong connection with the community and has developed a good understanding of the issues that are impacting the region.
Scott’s primary motivations to enter politics are to make a better future for his two boys and to be a positive contributor to the community. He is committed to providing the Sunshine Coast with effective representation, something that has been sadly lacking for decades and over the last three years in particular. Scott will stand up for the people of Fairfax so that the region does not continue to be left behind.
