NASHVILLE, April 14 /Christian Newswire/ -- Erick Goss, Creative Trust Media (CTM) co-managing partner, announced today that Scott Lewis, former executive vice-president and chief operating officer for International Justice Mission (IJM), has joined CTM as co-managing partner.
IJM is a Washington DC-based human rights agency that secures justice for victims of slavery, sexual exploitation and other violent oppression in developing countries. Lewis came to IJM from a distinguished 21-year career with Young Life, an international Christian youth organization, as an area and regional director. He also was senior campaign director in a $14.3 million capital campaign for Malibu, a Young Life camp property in British Columbia. Before that, Scott was a senior executive with Partners International, linking with skilled indigenous Christian leaders in the world's least Christian countries.
"Scott's lifetime passion is to improve the lives of children and young adults," Goss said. "From his work with at-risk youth at Young Life to preventing slavery through IJM, he shows tireless commitment--and ingenuity. He connects key stakeholders in fresh ways to help under-35 populations around the globe. With CT Media he extends that passion again, this time through film and media."
Mr. Lewis received a B.S. in education from Western Washington University and did post-graduate coursework through Fuller Theological Seminary and Indiana University's Center on Philanthropy.
