Steven leads our New York team as a veteran Capital Markets Advisor and Technology Executive with a 30-year track record of driving innovation and closing high-stakes transactions across real estate, finance, and media.

He began his career deploying institutional equity and debt trading platforms for Fortune 100 giants including Merrill Lynch, Citibank, and Credit Suisse. In 2000, he bridged technology and media at ABC News, building live computing infrastructure for marquee broadcasts like Good Morning America and election coverage alongside Peter Jennings and Barbara Walters. Recognizing his expertise in scaling tech, billionaire Barry Diller recruited Steven as a technology executive for IAC (formerly USAI), where he supported the strategic acquisition and integration of Expedia, Ticketmaster, and Match.com.

In 2004, Steven pivoted to commercial real estate, joining legendary Capital Markets broker Howard Michaels at The Carlton Group as Chief Technology Officer. There, he engineered a proprietary, streamlined loan auction platform that successfully transacted over $2 billion in commercial loans through 2009.

Leveraging this deep financial expertise, Steven transitioned into a Commercial Real Estate Capital Markets Advisor in 2012. He has since originated and structured over $2 billion in capital markets financings, focusing on high-profile land acquisitions and ground-up luxury condo and office high-rises in Manhattan and Miami CBDs. His institutional client roster features prominent firms like Bluerock REIT, Savanna Fund, Cohen Equities, and Vladislav Doronin’s OKO Development. In 2016, Steven returned to The Carlton Group to head all origination and placement activities for the Chairman's family office, seamlessly maintaining his institutional and client relationships

Steven holds a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a concentration in Financial Management from the University of Delaware.
