After graduation Steve set off for Salt Lake City, Utah to study and develop his trademark naturalistic aesthetic.

While there, he became an avid skier, and cultivated a book's worth of stories. However, love and longing for his family brought him back to his boyhood home where he pursued his dream of bringing beauty to the world through his free-spirited approach to landscape design.
