Steve’s journey began back in 1999, founding CC&A while still in high school as a website-design firm. Over time, he reimagined the company as a full-service marketing and communications agency built on one core belief: marketing works best when it understands people. By integrating behavioral psychology with modern digital tools, Steve has shaped CC&A into a firm where branding, SEO/SEM, content, and online reputation work together to influence human behavior and deliver measurable results.
Under his leadership, CC&A has delivered digital marketing and reputation-management strategies for clients across industries — from small businesses to larger organizations always starting with a deep understanding of business goals. Rather than forcing a one-size-fits-all solution, Steve believes in tailoring strategies to each client’s definition of success.
Steve is widely recognized for his expertise. He has served as an expert witness for digital reputation management and search-engine strategies, and has delivered keynote talks and workshops around marketing psychology, leadership in marketing, and sustainable growth.
He brings a unique combination of strategic thinking, psychological insight, and agency leadership to every project, helping clients not just reach their audience, but connect with them on a deeper level.
Whether he’s leading CC&A’s full-service digital marketing efforts, consulting on brand reputation, or speaking about marketing psychology and conversions, Steve brings a level of authority and insight that shapes how CC&A helps businesses grow.
