JT Scott

Boston Talks

**JT** is a parallel processing entrepreneur who currently manages at least 3 separate businesses: CrossFit Somerville, Union Wellness Center, and JTSRE Holdings. At CrossFit Somerville, he is a trainer who enjoys introducing new and formerly-untrained athletes to the prospect of unlocking their potential. He is dedicated to the goal of maintaining CrossFit Somerville as a facility that provides access to life-changing fitness education and inspiration to all comers. In addition, he is a Biomedical and Electrical Engineer, Licensed Massage Therapist, and chronic experimenter in new methods. He has been founding CrossFit facilities since 2009. JT’s passion is fostering community by creating welcoming environments and motivating people to use conscious choice as a practice in their lives inside and outside of the training facility. His mission is to change the world. Outside of CrossFit, JT is a queer activist and engaged in local politics, serving on the Founding Committee of Union Square Neighbors and as a Director of Union Square Main Streets. He is also a (literal) fire-breather and fire-eater with the Boston Circus Guild, amongst his many other interests.
