Howdy, I’m Steve. I’m a student living in the United Kingdom. I am a fan of music, video games, and acting. I’m also interested in entrepreneurship and photography.

For an artistic person with big dreams, it’s a hard thing to measure. But I know that the value is monumental.
One of the most satisfying parts of my job is helping talented musicians pry themselves loose of the confusion of not knowing what to do next.

And I agree! That’s the model I’ve seen work for small creators over and over again.
