Currently, Steve performs around Northeast Ohio as a solo artist and as part of many community and professional groups including local bands, pit orchestras, dinner theaters. In 2019, he was a featured artist in the Southeastern Ohio Symphony Orchestra's "Concerts at the Museum" series playing a selection of baroque pieces on classical guitar. He also performs with his rock band "Grimestone" and in the acoustic duo "Downtown, Overhead." He also performs at the Congregational UCC every Sunday Morning as part of their service.

Steven is a wonderful teacher and provides a comfortable environment to learn and grow. I have been taking lessons from him for over a year. He tailors every lesson to meet the goals and interests of the student. His prices are reasonable and I’ve made a lot of progress in his studio. I would highly recommend him!
