SCOTT-FOUNDATION THOUGHT AND SERVICE LEADERS Hummingbird Tiny Home Inn CEO Justin Beers and Jewell Homes AZ Realtor Gretchen Jewel
Coming Fall 2019! The idea of The Hummingbird Tiny Home Inn came from a desire to find a way to live a more meaningful life and spend more time with our children. We want to create a place where we can live out our own dreams but also share with others the benefits of living a simpler life. Please join us as we journey down the road less traveled…
At The Hummingbird Inn, we pride ourselves in making tiny living luxurious and comfortable. Each of our homes are custom built by Arizona’s own Uncharted Tiny Homes™, and are designed with their own unique personality. From traditional lofted tiny homes, to single level suites, there will be a floor plan to match your needs. Each home will feature a full bathroom with Kohler™ fixtures, fully equipped tiny kitchen, living area with full size couch, plush beds from Tuft and Needle™ fitted with luxurious linens, high-efficiency LED lighting, and outdoor patio which overlooks our 3000+ square foot common area with sustainable lawn, indigenous plants and vegetable gardens.
Growing up the son of a salesman truly laid the foundation for Justin Beers’ nomadic lifestyle. Moving up and down the West Coast in his early years (Washington, Oregon and California) and adapting to new people became “normal” and inspired his profession and wanderlust spirit.
After stumbling into the hospitality industry at 15 years old, Justin quickly realized that he had a passion for creating memorable experiences for people he interacted with. Over his 20+ year career in the Hospitality Industry, he held many positions such as room service attendant at Little America, fine dining server at Kai, Front Office Manager at The Sheraton Wild Horse Pass, Director of Guest services at The St. Regis Deer Valley, to his most recent role of Director of Operations at Phoenix’s only 5 Star boutique hotel, The Canyon Suites at the Phoenician.
He is excited to bring his passion for hospitality, attention to detail and living small to the first Tiny Home Hotel in Arizona while being able to spend more time on his biggest passion, his family.

ABOUT THE THOUGHT & SERVICE LEADER Podcast and Scott-Foundation
Scott-Foundation has big aspirations and a different path for Arizona foster youth. They imagine a journey that changes the face of humanity and inspires their kids to be their absolute best today while making tomorrow’s world a much better place for all. They imagine an education and societal system focused on the power of community rather than competition; and they imagine a world where children are taught we are not separate, but instead, we are all a part of something much bigger than ourselves – we are one.
Scott-Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that invests in the future of Arizona foster youth who wish to make the world better than they found it. The foundation produces year-round experiential programming that highlights, inspires and educate youth on the importance of social emotional well-being, while mindfully developing their heart and purposeful career path.
WHAT DO YOU LEAVE BEHIND? What kind of person do you want to be? Life/Legacy Plan – What is the history of your future? How can you make the world better than you found it?
Motivated by tragedy, youth transform to find their true self and become self- supporting, successful, community-minded, “compassionate people”.
ABOUT YOUR HOSTS
Autumn Wilson has proudly stepped into the Community Relations Specialist position with Scott-Foundation as well as continued work as a Thought & Service Leader and Mentor.
Having been in the foster care system since she was 3, she began her Scott-Foundation journey at 15 and her passion is “helping others”. Things that make her the happiest is her sisters, helping people and “knowing” she will never be like the people who hurt her.
She describes herself as brave, courageous and kind. Her challenge is trust, very hard to do, and her biggest fear is being left alone, being lonely and empty.
Her direction in life has always been very clear for her since she was little, with a dream to be an Inspirational Public Speaker and possibly a Therapist advocating for kids in foster care. She’s grown a lot since she’s been with Scott-Foundation and very quickly declared her wish to take the Founder & CEO of the Scott-Foundation’s position, Colleen Walski.
If she could make one rule that everyone in the world had to obey, it would be – “Everyone would be caring.”
When asked how she wants to help the world, Autumn shares, “I want to make it safer, better for us to live in. I want everyone to know there are people that are out there and care about them.”
Her future is bright with career interests of being a Thought & Service Leader, Public Speaker, helping others use their voice, being there for others, making her mark on the world and by making Scott-Foundation’s worldwide and breaking the cycle of foster care.
