She got her big break at age 7 - cast as "Susie-Q" in John Waters' film Cry-Baby with Ricki Lake & Johnny Depp. Through high school, Scout did professional theater, performing at The Kennedy Center and with The Washington Opera Company, and lent her talents to commercials and voice over. She took a break and got dual degrees in Classics and Marketing from the prestigious College of William and Mary.
Following college, she high-tailed it out to Los Angeles, and has been loving it there ever since! In the City of Angels, she has been cast in over a dozen independent films and made her TV debut, guest-starring on CBS' hit show Criminal Minds.
