Since the movie “Back to the Future” made its debut, Steve has had the privilege to serve the American people as a member of one of the finest humanitarian organizations in the world, the American Red Cross. He has seen people at their best, performing acts of kindness during the worst of times while facing challenges they never imagined. His first-hand experiences include being shaken by the Loma Prieta earthquake in California, responding to an F5 tornado in Greensburg, Kansas, deploying to Hurricane Harvey in Houston, Texas, as well as countless disasters across Wisconsin. Very much a family man, Steve feels fortunate to have spent the past 23 years living close to his family, while developing life-long friendships at the Red Cross.
