Steve founded Steve's Mobile Music in July 2000. After helping organize school dances at his small southwest-Iowa high school, he saw an opportunity to provide a vastly superior service--and have a lot of fun in the process. From humble beginnings buying a sound system on his mom's credit card, Steve's Mobile Music has grown to what it is today.

Steve has spoken about his company at the 2004, 2005, and 2006 Collegiate Entrepreneur's Iowa Conferences, ISU Entrepreneur Club events, and the Iowa Association of Business and Industry's "Business Horizons" camp. Steve has great interest in entrepreneurship of all types, and enjoys learning from successful business owners as well as sharing his story and experiences with others. He was president of the ISU Entrepreneur Club for the 2004-05 year, and in April 2005 was selected as the third place Global Student Entrepreneur Award winner in the Northern US Region (link).

Originally hailing from Lenox, Iowa, Steve is a 2005 graduate of Iowa State University with a BS in Electrical Engineering and minor in Entreprenurial Studies. In addition to overseeing DJ operations, he keeps his engineering skills sharp by working part time doing R&D, testing, and istallations for a company specializing in instrumentation for nanotechnology research (Novascan Technologies, www.novascan.com). Besides the obligatory long walks on the beach, his interests include cars, stereos, music, or any combination. He has four pet fish, none of which have names.
