About Scott

U.S. expansion architect for cross-border ecommerce brands

For 29 years, I have worked with business owners at every stage of entity formation, structuring, and compliance, serving more than 7,000 foreign and U.S. founders. Today I focus on non-U.S. ecommerce brands entering the U.S. market through Verified Expansion by NCP: the right entity, tax structure, banking, and marketplace verification, set up so it holds with Amazon, TikTok Shop, Shopify, the banks, and the IRS.

My clients include cross-border brand owners, licensees planning U.S. launches, and advisory firms (CPAs, VAT firms, and law firms) that need a U.S. expansion specialist for their international clients.

I lead a formation and verification team. We spot common risk flags and coordinate with your licensed advisors before anything is filed. We work with tax attorneys and CPAs, and if you do not have one, we connect you with independent professionals matched to your specific facts.

“Confidence and confirmation are not the same thing.”

We would rather slow down for a week and verify than file something that creates a problem six months from now, or a bigger one with the IRS two or three years later.

“The right answers will not save you if nobody asks the right questions.”

We review every application before we file. If something does not add up, we stop and ask.
