Steve has fifteen years of experience in construction, and twenty years of experience in building code administration, management, building plan review, training, building evaluations, and building inspections. He was instrumental in establishing the contractor licensing and continuing education requirements for the Town of Jackson, and his thorough knowledge of the International Codes is an asset in rural areas lacking oversight by code officials. He provides code consulting services to a number of architectural firms in Wyoming.
Steve’s expertise and knowledge of current building codes, building systems, moisture control, and energy efficiency are critical to design and construction. Years of observations as an inspector give him extensive insight into the challenges of cold climate building in which he applies his skills to design effective moisture management systems.
Steve enjoys golf, fishing and is an avid hunter.
To realize his lifelong dream of having a log cabin, he and his wife Pam built their solar powered cabin on South Pass, using native logs and reclaimed materials to a great extent.
He is a lifetime member of the Wyoming Conference of Building Officials (WCBO), and served many years on the WCBO Board of Directors. He currently serves on the Board of Directors for the Lander Golf Club.
