Personal

Born on July 11, 1985 in Aurora, Colorado...He attempted to fill his cup with typical sports like baseball, basketball, and football, but it wasn’t until near death and the removal of his appendix in 2010, did he see the sport of skeleton. ...Forever changed, Stephen set two goals: to one up everyone in his family by graduating college and to crush the sport of skeleton. ...He has accomplished one of those goals, with a degree in Sports and Entertainment Management from University of South Carolina. While not giving up on crushing skeleton, he has also set sail on a new voyage: Entrepreneurship....He currently gets paid by his sub par looks and position as Global Director of Esports for Hotel Carbon....When he is not training or working he can is often mistaken for Bear Grylls and will be found off grid exploring nature.
