Scott George

Proactive. Caring. The guy who makes taxes a little less taxing for clients.

If you’ve got complex real estate deals or tangled tax situations, Scott George is the one to call. A senior manager in Perkins’ tax department, Scott uses his sharp skills and years of experience to guide passthrough entities and their owners through tricky transactions and creative tax-saving strategies. Scott’s proactive style means he’s always a step ahead, checking in with clients regularly to share insights and help solve problems before they snowball.

Scott grew up in Western Pennsylvania as part of a huge family (think more than 300 cousins!) With a family tree full of entrepreneurs, Scott always knew he wanted a career in business. He just didn’t know which path to take until a college tax internship showed him how fun figuring out the puzzle of tax laws could be. These days, he carries that enthusiasm into each client project, especially in the real estate sector, where he loves watching his clients’ visions transform into completed builds or newly renovated spaces.

Outside the office, Scott is as dynamic as the tax strategies he develops for clients. Whether hiking Oregon’s trails with his husky-shepherd mix, Blizzard, carving turns on snow-covered slopes, or fishing for a quiet moment in nature, he’s always up for an adventure. When he’s home, you might find him whipping up his famous chicken pad thai or channeling the best advice he’s received: when tackling a tough job, find the little joys that keep you going.

At Perkins, Scott blends technical expertise, a keen understanding of client needs, and a love for solving problems into every aspect of his work. And with him in your corner, you can be sure your tax challenges are in the best possible hands.
