Hi, I'm #18.

Steve is entering his senior year at Northern Illinois University and will be graduating next May with a BFA in Visual Communications. Steve transferred from Harper College in 2008 and shortly thereafter began the VisCom program at NIU. For as long as he can remember, Steve has always been passionate about creating. He plans to take full advantage of the opportunity he has been given as Intern Number 18, and he is excited to embrace his future endeavors at the company.

Steve is a tech nerd at heart and loves everything with a power source. Aside from electronic toys, he also enjoys singing and playing the guitar. Due to the fact that he has been a member in multiple bands over the years, Steve has managed to earn himself a permanent headlining spot at all campfire sing-alongs, and he reserves full bragging rights for this prestigious honor. His other interests include 80's music, the Cubs, karaoke, Ron Burgundy, sushi, fishing, Xbox, and watching reruns of Seinfeld.
