About Me


I am a writer by trade. But above all accomplishments I find no greater pride than from simply being a devoted husband, parent and friend.
I was raised in the Corona section of Queens, New York, attended Newtown High School and earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree from West Virginia University where I am currently a Master of Science in Journalism degree candidate. Let's Go Mountaineers!
My graduate research is focused on the potential for film and television production to act as a catalyst for economic development and positive social change. I have also created, written and developed a pilot for a critically acclaimed dramatic television series titled This Hard Land .
As a U.S. Army Veteran, I served honorably with the 1st Battalion, 35th Armored Regiment of the 1st Armored Division in Baumholder, Germany. As a member of Task Force Hawk and Task Force Falcon, I was among the first ground troops into Kosovo during the Kosovo Air War. My military awards and citations include the Army Achievement Medal, Kosovo Campaign Medal and Nato Medal.
Passionate and idealistic by nature, I consider the struggle against great odds to accomplish the extraordinary the fuel that keeps me blazing my own path through life. If for no other reason than because the powerful play goes on and I yet may contribute a verse.
For when it’s all said and done and this journey has reached the end of the road, I’d like to look back with the realization that, in some small way, the world was a better place for the brief moment in time that I was a part of it. And like Frankie said: 'I did it My Way.'
I currently live in Morgantown, West Virginia with my wife Stephanie, children (Nathaniel, Skylar and Mackenzie) and an assortment of animals that have adopted the Steele family as their own.
My interests are wide and varied. I enjoy music, the arts, sports, politics, writing, reading, current events, time with my family and the list goes on. If you have any questions feel free to write and ask.

Bruce Springsteen and all of you out there who dare to dream and follow that dream wherever it may lead.
