Bio
Marissa Swart
Steve has a keen ability to connect with people. This is seen in how he develops products which meet and exceed customer requirements but also his ability to easily work cross functionally in the organization. I am grateful to have worked with Steve and look forward to his future successes.
Alex Karpf
Steve would always go the extra mile when we worked together. I was always amazed at his tenacity and hard work to get projects completed, staying late and overcoming all obstacles. When faced with a challenge, Steve would not shift blame or shirk responsibilities but would step up and take action to make sure that things were completed on time and correct every time.
