Born and raised in Africa, his early years were spent at a boarding school in the rural Great Lakes region of the Congo. Strict rules competed with freewheeling boyhood adventures, fueling a creative, curious mind and establishing ideas about authority and the world. Later, in a new Pacific Northwest landscape, he studied architecture, explored spiritual frontiers, and helped build a family while working in software startups and marketing agencies. Today, Steve continues to create story worlds and characters, further absorbing and appreciating life's gifts.
