For [**Scott Stevens**](https://www.linkedin.com/in/scottstevenstech/), a veteran of the semiconductor and PC industry, it’s not just the innovation and technological revolutions that mark the timeline of his journey. More precious are the personal milestones: the births of his three children, Jenny, Will, and Cole.

As a dedicated father, he prioritized carving out time during his bustling work hours for his kids, reinforcing the family values that he holds dear. From making surprise visits at school lunches to silently being there while they were asleep, he imbued their lives with his loving presence. He also used his professional opportunities to live overseas and expose his children to new people and cultures as he worked to instill empathy, understanding and concern for others in their lives and ensure they value and hold dear the family bonds that they share.

Taking a leaf from Scott’s book, are we ensuring that our professional lives aren’t overshadowing those unforgettable family moments that truly make life worth living? Join me in watching this conversation on [balancing work and family life](https://marketscale.com/industries/growthwell/work-life-synergy-brendan-tolleson-growthwell-josh-byrd/) in our latest podcast episode of [*Grand Dads*](https://marketscale.com/shows/grand-dads/).

I'm still in awe of Scott's daughter as a brand-new nurse stepping up during Covid to ensure people didn't have to die alone. A remarkable testament to the quality of the Stevens family.
