Steve began playing the piano and composing at age 12, concentrating primarily in classical music. Throughout high school, he branched out into jazz, rock, and electronic music and later enrolled at the University of Kentucky to study composition, orchestration, and piano. Among his most notable accomplishments before receiving his BA in music include composing and performing a full-length concerto for piano and orchestra (performance transcribed for two pianos), recording and releasing a progressive rock album, scoring a student film, and winning the John Barnes Chance Composition Award for best student composition.
Currently living in Seattle, WA, Steve is actively searching for new game projects while continuing to develop and refine his compositional skills and audio production knowledge.
