About Steve:
Steve loves embarrassing his children, riding on various types of boards, independent coffee shops, singing shamelessly, and making people smile.
Steve loves to talk about:
- The power of a playful mindset and how it can be used to spark creativity, increase engagement, and bring powerfully positive energy to your organization
- How to succeed in the life-changing relationship business. After all, it’s all about relationships.

The Playmaker Project
100% of Steve's speaking fees are tax deductible and donated directly to The Life is Good Playmaker Project.
The Playmaker Project provides training and support for thousands of childcare professionals, helping them build healing, transformational relationships with the children and families in their care - and making a positive impact in the lives of over 1.8 million children every year.
PLAY. It's not just for kids.
A clinical social worker by trade, Steve has spent over 30 years pioneering innovative, play-based programs and trainings that empower communities to better care for children during times of overwhelming adversity.
Adults, too, thrive in environments rich in joy, social connection, active engagement, and empowerment. In his dynamic, thought-provoking, down-to-earth keynotes, Steve inspires others to shift their mindset and meet life's greatest challenges with the powerful energy and optimism of children.
Because after all: we don't stop playing because we grow old. We grow old because we stop playing.
