He served 12 years as the Supervisor, overseeing over 50 million dollars in infrastructure upgrades.   Steve uses the experience gained in each of these positions to assist clients through the oftentimes confusing entitlement, financing and development processes.  He is currently the Consulting Attorney for the Town of Thompson Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals. 

Steven maintains a diverse private practice.
