		<text><![CDATA[<center><font color="#FFFFFF" size="12">Steven began sales while in college. He currently is studying at BYU and working towards a bachelors in civil engineering. Steven then wishes to continue his post graduate education and pursue a masters degree in architecture. He plans to continue in the sales field while still in school to fund his education.
In 2004 Steven served for his church in Switzerland and France through a volunteer program which focused on teaching families the christian gospel through service oriented activities. During his two year service he mastered the french language. Steven was also given the responsibility to oversee and train many other young men and women that were part of the same program. Through this experience, Steven was able to learn people and leadership skills that he still uses everyday in his career. 
After returning to the United States, Steven undertook sales. He has now had four years experience selling, two of which have been in management positions. Steven enjoys selling because of the great opportunity to grow and learn that is present. He enjoys the ability to be in control of his own income, and the responsibility to help teach others to do the same.
Steven grew up in Alberta Canada, in a small ranching village that he claims as home. He has always had a fondness for Texas, where his mother was raised and where much of his family still lives. Growing up, Steven learned the importance of industry and hard work through the ranching lifestyle. He is recently married to his beautiful wife Lexi, and looks forward to having children soon.</font></center>]]></text>
