Scott Beckwith graduated from the Pacific Coast Banking School at the University of Washington in 2009 and the Northwest Credit Union Business Lending School in 2012. He has a bachelor’s degree in business administration from Hope College in Holland, Michigan.

Scott has been a commercial lender in the South Puget Sound since 2005. His objective is to create a winning experience for borrowers by using responsible lending practices. This is achieved by getting to know borrowers’ objectives and long-term plans in order to make appropriate recommendations. It is important to get started by properly identifying needs and then working within mutually acceptable plans. Scott has done many types of commercial loans, including SBA 504, SBA 7(a), residential spec, and commercial construction, as well as working capital and term loans for real estate and equipment.

Scott is actively involved in the community, having served as Board President of the Downtown Olympia YMCA and Olympia Capital Centennial Rotary Club. He has also served as the Fundraising Chair for both organizations for many years, and he received volunteer-of-the-year awards from both organizations.

Scott enjoys golfing, running, and family time.
