Scott Hagwood

Scott Hagwood graduated as a chemical engineer from the
University of Tennessee, Knoxville and struggled with memory
problems throughout his academic years. Test anxiety and
inefficient study habits left Scott feeling inadequate about
his own mental capabilities until he lost his tenuous hold
on memory as a result of thyroid cancer. To combat the
effects of the treatment, Scott learned how our memories
work and transformed himself into America’s first and only
Grand Master of Memory.
