Dr. Scott Crawford has a PhD in neuro psychology, which is the study of brain-behavior relationships.

In 2000, he started having the syptoms of Multiple Sclerosis such as episode of being paralyzed multiple times a year. It wasn’t until two years later, in 2002, that he was offically diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis. After his diagnosis he decided to move back to his home town of Jackson, Mississippi, where he has spent the last number of years advocating for accessible infrastructure, as well as founding Keep Building Jackson, where he recreated many of the city's buildings to scale using legos.

When asked why he enjoys creating with legos, he says, “Building with LEGO bricks is a metaphor for dealing with adversity. One never has all the bricks one wants, and sometimes we lose them. I do as my disease (multiple sclerosis) progresses. We’re left to rebuild with what we have left.”
