About our Instructor:
Scott Rivera was born in Brooklyn, New York, where he first fell in love with pizza, but it was only after moving across the country that he took it upon himself to learn how to make the food that he grew up eating, and he quickly became obsessed. In 2015 he opened Scottie’s Pizza Parlor in Portland, Oregon, serving 18” pies in a New York-Neopolitan hybrid style, using naturally leavened dough, organic tomatoes, and local veggies. He is known for winning the 2018 Caputo Cup at an international pizza making competition, and for his signature ‘DeFino’pie, a grandma style pizza named for his great grandmother who immigrated from Naples to New York.
