More About Scott Ertl
While I performed comedy magic and juggling in the circus for 9 years, I eventually ran away from the circus to join a school to work as a school counselor for 22 years. In both jobs, I saw the power of humor and teamwork along with the consequences of addictions and depression. I created the Buoy App to help everyone keep positive messages easy to access for quick inspiration when you're feeling like your drowning in doubt or sadness and need a pick-me-up.
