Steve is of fair complexion with short brownish gray hair.My public service as both a military officer and educator shapes my vision for a thriving Bend, in both the near term and in building a resilient future for Central Oregon. I am dedicated to serving as a voice for all of Bend as we move forward together. You will find me with my family on the trails, around the lakes and on the rivers of our beautiful community enjoying all that Central Oregon has to offer.
