Bio

Steven graduated from Wesleyan University with a BA in Psychology. Soon after graduating, he joined HBO Sports, where he helped produce two Emmy-nominated feature-length documentaries. He went on to attend The American Film Institute, where the American Cinema Editors (A.C.E.) honored him with an EDDIE nomination for his work and his thesis film, “This Way Up,” received a Student Academy Award. Upon graduating he became a member of the Motion Pictures Editors Guild. Steven believes film is important and at its best can be used as a vehicle for social change. He makes a mean Trinidadian Oxtail Stew, thinks Biggie is better than Tupac and is, for better or for worse, a diehard New York Mets fan.
