Steve is the Director of New Markets for OHM Advisors. In this newly created position, he spearheads OHM Advisors' efforts to explore and develop new market opportunities. He brings a deep understanding of market dynamics and the experience of establishing and growing the first OHM Advisors office outside of Michigan and in the state of Tennessee, where his leadership expanded the firm’s reputation, staff, and footprint over the course of 16 successful years.

A two-time team member of OHM Advisors, Steve first joined the firm in 1997 as a municipal engineer and acted for five years as the engineer of record for several municipalities. He managed projects and staff, and performed design work, plan review and engineering studies related to utility and road infrastructure. He then left the firm and spent the following five years as a vice president for Biltmore Properties, managing the construction of dozens of residential and mixed-use developments. There, he used his infrastructure expertise in the planning, design, permitting and construction of water systems, roads, and sanitary systems, and managed internal staff, technical consultants and contractors for each project.

In 2007, Steve drew on his deep public and private work experience and his innate entrepreneurial spirit to return to OHM Advisors with a vision to expand the company into a new service territory. He led the operations of the Nashville office until 2024 and was integral to its strategic and successful growth. Steve is a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE). He is a past president, region governor, and member of its Infrastructure Policy Committee.
