Chair (Raleigh, NC)

Scott Konzem is proud to serve as the Chair of the Board of Directors for the NGPA, the worldwide LGBTQ aviation community.  Prior to this role, Scott served as Vice Chair of the board for two years, and the Chair of the Development Committee for three years where he directed individual donor fundraising for the organization.  He also serves as the NGPA Military Liaison, where his goal is to facilitate greater communication and cooperation between Department of Defense entities and the NGPA.

In Scott's day job, he serves as a Pilot in the U.S. Air Force.  Scott earned his commission and BS in English in 2004 from the U.S. Air Force Academy and since then has earned his MBA, MS in International Relations (Troy University) and MA in National Security and Strategic Studies (U.S. Naval War College).  Scott considers himself lucky to have served as an instructor and evaluator in a variety of U.S. Air Force aircraft from small propeller and training aircraft up to the C-17A.

Scott lives in Raleigh, North Carolina with his husband Don and their very spoiled Shih-Tzus, Jack & Bruno.
