About Scott

Scott Hefner is a local business executive and small farm owner who has called Mt. Juliet home since 2007.  He and his wife Cheri raised two daughters in Mount Juliet, Haley and Maile, both of whom attended Wilson County Public Schools.  Scott’s family, faith, success in business, and love for the community have motivated his desire to help guide the City of Mount Juliet’s future as a City Commissioner.

Mr. Hefner has over 30 years serving the property/casualty, worker’s compensation, and healthcare industries through business consulting services and strategic accounts management.  Scott has specialized in technology and outsourcing solutions that improve mission-critical business processes for top-tier companies in these fields. He has served on the Senior Advisory Board for Finexio, a payments facilitator formed out of Silicon Valley, and held a position at a Washington D.C. based non-profit alliance that served the technology, innovation, and collaboration needs of the U.S. healthcare industry.

For the last 11 years, Scott has attended to the needs of his neighborhood as Vice President/Treasurer of his Homeowner’s Association Board of Directors.  Prior to moving to Mt. Juliet, he served in a nearly identical capacity for a 600-unit condominium in Florida.  Also in Florida, Scott was heavily involved with the Christian non-profit organization Children of the Nations on a relief mission to the Dominican Republic. 

In his spare time, Scott is an avid runner, having completed over 15 full and half marathons in the past decade.  He also enjoys spending time on his farm in Watertown, TN, where he maintains a small vineyard consisting of several grape varietals.

Scott holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration from Troy University in Troy, Alabama, and previously held Series 7, 24, 63, and 65 licenses for financial services giant Morgan Stanley.
