During a career born among mainframes, Steve witnessed the birth of the PC, email, the Web, smart phones, social media and Big Data. His first startup was located in a chalet in the Swiss Alps, followed by entrepreneurial work in Los Angeles and San Francisco. Among a diverse portfolio of software projects is a complete, 3D CAD-based system for the design and manufacturing of paragliders and traction kites. Actually, there are two of those. These days, Steve focuses on the visual representation of data.
