About

Ted planted the seeds of Scout Digital from his college dorm room when he created Middkid.com, a more fun alternative to Middlebury College’s official website. Over twenty years later, he still relishes the creativity and entrepreneurship that comes with building websites and digital marketing. He’s also the President of Union Street Media, an agency that develops custom digital marketing and website solutions for real estate.
