This video is an extract from Khan Academy Scott Cook Founder and Chairman of the Executive Committee, Intuit.

Scott Cook was born and raised in a suburb of L.A. after his parents emigrated from Wisconsin. He attended the University of Southern California, then Harvard Business School. Scott started his career at P&G in Cincinnati in brand management, where he met his future wife Signe Ostby when seeking advice from other brand groups. Though Intuit struggled in its early years, with VCs refusing to invest, the business eventually improved. Scott is still at Intuit today and has learned to love tax season. He funds social entrepreneurs catalyzing global leaps in education and medical research. He resides in Woodside, California.
