Scott Shamberg

Slightly cynical father of two, marketer, amateur comedian, Chicagoan.

Scott's parenting experience includes overseeing two kids and recently the addition of a dog. He and his wife live in Highland Park, IL where Scott spends his free time listening to music his children hate, trying to get in shape to run another marathon and, when the moment strikes him, writing comedic satire. The greatest moment of his life is a tie: Paul Konerko’s grand slam in Game 2 of the 2005 World Series or the birth of the previously mentioned two dependents. When his children ask him this question, he tends to lie.

Scott has served in executive-level roles for large companies, run marketing programs for Fortune 100 clients and been involved in early stage start-ups. He currently serves as the President, U.S. at Performics, a media and technology company in Chicago, has over 20 years of experience in digital marketing, just over 12 years of senior-level parenting experience and 44 years serving as a Chicago sports fan, most years tougher than others.
