Testimonials

Founder

CEO at Degrees2Dreams

Steve is extremely approachable, especially compared to many of the folks in this space who seem to want to be the high priests of knowledge and look down upon those who are just getting started. Steve wants EVERYONE to be able to enjoy the creativity and excitement he’s experienced. He doesn’t mind dropping down to the most basic level, time and time again, to help “newbies” figure it out. People leave sessions with Steve ready to run down to Best Buy and get their gear so they can start streaming video and recording sound and setting up Flickr accounts.

I can highly recommend Steve.
