About Scott

Scott Alin is an American actor, sort of like the acclaimed Adam Scott but with a Christian Bale edge—and he won’t even go full-Method on you. He does, however, commit completely to character with profound detail, range, and vulnerability. When he isn't nurturing a psychosis with his latest role, he's developing and creating stories that inspire, educate, and entertain (unless the paycheck is really nice).

Some of his notable film and TV appearances include the pilot episode of 'Criminal Minds: Beyond Borders' (CBS), 'Hacks' (HBO-MAX), '*Loosely Exactly Nicole' (MTV), and a new series in development as a series regular, 'Purple Case'.

His theater credits include Josh in 'Intimate,' for the Short+Sweet stage competition (Semi-finalists), the Inspector of Schools in 'The Government Inspector' (Red Ballet Productions), Greg Tower in the original musical production of 'Doctor! Doctor!' (Stages of Gray Productions), and many more. He's worked and trained in his hometown of Chicago, Los Angeles, and internationally in China.

Scott holds a Bachelor's of Business Management from Arizona State University where he graduated with Honors from the Barrett Honors College, as well as a Master's in Journalism and Integrated Media Communications from Northwestern University. He also completed a two-year Meisner program with Alex Taylor from The Taylor School of Acting, while continuing to train with accomplished mentors such as Lesly Kahn (Lesly Kahn & Co), Larry Moss (Larry Moss Studios), and Gregory Berger (Berg Studios).


Unique traits: Master's of Science in Journalism from Northwestern University: Almost dropped out when I realized no one trusts the news, but we're all moved by make-believe. Funny, huh?
